In memory of the radio station Otdykh. -------------------------------------------------- ------ I learned about the Otdykh radio station in 1977. Others probably did too. This radio operated in the suburbs of Constanta, Romania, and was aimed at local resorts. I don't know how this is possible, but in Crimea, at least in its western part, it was the most powerful station on medium waves. It was just like FM today. But in Bakhchisarai it was no longer heard. He worked in five languages at once - Romanian, German, English, Russian and French. That is, most of the texts were repeated in all these languages, and always in the specified order. The texts, however, were more advertising or short news releases. The main thing is that it was the only real music station, where from 10 in the morning until 3 in the afternoon they played the most fashionable world hits.
