In our city, the first local radio station "Valdai FM" began its official broadcasting. The station can be found on 100.1 FM 24/7. The 490 Watt transmitter is configured to cover Valdai and the Valdai region. The founders of the radio station do not hide their desire to broadcast specifically to the territory and population of the region, and not to the highways and out-of-town transit travelers passing along them. Valdai FM editor-in-chief Evgeny Kuznetsov told us that the radio station has only three people on staff (host, editor- in-chief and correspondent). This is a real team of like-minded people who have been working on the idea of implementing the project for many years. After several months of testing and all kinds of approvals, the idea reached its logical conclusion, and the station became available to listeners on the air. The radio station's frequency plays the best songs of various styles, district and regional news and interviews are published, there is a morning show, sections "Valdai Historical", "Movie Soundtracks", "Children's Songs" and, of course, there is a program at the request of radio listeners. News blocks are focused on local events.

Judging by the answers, it is most difficult to broadcast in a 15- kilometer zone from the contact line, which is explained by constant enemy attacks, including on communications facilities.

In the USSR, the choice of telephone models was not so large, but over many years the population had accumulated a sufficient assortment.

This was done following the example of Western countries in order to save electricity. - After 1921, time zones began to be introduced in the RSFSR and the USSR, and standard time began to operate, which did not provide for the annual change of hands. - On June 16, 1930, by decree of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR, time was moved forward one hour (the so-called maternity time). After this, the switches were not translated for more than 50 years. - The change of clocks to summer time was resumed on April 1, 1981, but already relative to maternity time. - On June 3, 2011, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev signed the federal law "On the Calculation of Time," according to which 11 time zones in Russia were replaced by nine time zones.

As soon as I received the call sign, registered the radio station, installed the antenna, and pressed the PTT key for the first time, my computer speakers started buzzing. I disassembled and inspected the antenna plug, bnc type. I didn't see any problems. The central core is securely clamped with a bolt, the braid is crimped and tightly tied with heat-shrink tubing. There is contact everywhere. The coaxial cable ran behind the heating radiator in close proximity to the computer speakers, which means the interference goes through the heating radiators.
