Text of a scientific article. Author: Vlasov Dmitry Valerievich. The rapid development of radio broadcasting in the 1920s and 1930s contributed to the spread of the artificial language Esperanto. Soviet Esperantists, who believed that the use of an international language on the radio could help promote Soviet values and cultures of the peoples of the USSR abroad, actively collaborated with radio operators. During this period, several radio stations in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus organized Esperanto radio courses and broadcast short messages and radio newspapers in this language. In connection with the liquidation of the Soviet Union of Esperantists in 1936 - 1938. these experiments stopped.

For the first time on Sverdlovsk television, a digital avatar presented a program instead of a real presenter. The innovation was introduced at Sverdlovsk Regional Television (OTV). The first to undergo digitization was the head of the TV channel, Eleonora Rasulova - her avatar carried out the release of the weather forecast. The head of OTV plans to further implement this practice on the TV channel.

Russia will take asymmetrical measures against Montenegro, which has banned the broadcasting of some Russian media since July 10. This is stated in the commentary of the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova. "We regard the next attack of the Montenegrin government as a hostile act of naked censorship, designed, on the one hand, to give the appearance of legitimacy to the grossest violations of media freedoms, and on the other, to curry favor with EU Brussels in the hope of cherished progress on the "Europath". They are ready to please the Russophobic transatlantic agenda continue the course of undermining the democratic foundations of their society and state, and deprive their own citizens of the right to access information," the commentary notes. These unfriendly actions will not remain without an asymmetric response," the diplomat emphasized. Zakharova noted that the Electronic Media Agency of Montenegro ordered the competent departments of the country and local telecommunications companies to completely stop broadcasting Russian media no later than July 10. We are talking about 20 domestic media operators, including Channel One, Rossiya 1, RT, Sputnik, NTV, REN TV and others. This decision implies a ban on satellite and cable broadcasts of their content, as well as any other way of distributing it, including on the Internet, explained the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry.

There is a theoretical idea that has not yet been made practical. -------------------------------------------------- ------------------- There are various videos on the topic of Radio on YouTube and other platforms. However, on the essence of the issue of Powerful Radio Broadcasting, the stories are simply piecemeal. In this regard, an idea appeared. Perhaps one of the bloggers or some media or print publications will want to film material about an interesting but forgotten topic. Remember the past, talk about the current state of affairs. Powerful Broadcasting is an interesting topic. But personally, I have little idea who could be offered to work with such a topic. Yes, there are bloggers on YouTube who make materials about amateur radio and homemade structures. But specifically about Radio Broadcasting, I personally can't find anything. Powerful Broadcasting is a very broad topic. Don't think that these are only transmitters and antennas. These are both receivers and the attitude of the Society (including foreign ones). Various problems related to each other. That is, the plot can be both with a pronounced technical interest, and from the point of view of a simple listener-everyman.

The department decided that information disseminated outside the media must contain reliable information about the owner to identify him. Now this requirement already applies to the personal pages of social network users, but in most cases it is not fulfilled, so Roskomnadzor decided to make it more specific, TASS reports. According to the initiative, popular bloggers will now be required to provide Roskomnadzor with their full names and contact information in order to send legally significant information. This will not be registration, but a notification to the regulator that the account owner is disseminating information. The decision is explained by the fact that today online platforms often serve as media. The anonymity of content producers can be dangerous. False information can harm not only the individual, but also the security of the state. Therefore, people must understand responsibility.

A beauty on screen, she was also a talented inventor outside of cinema. Fascinated by chemistry and mechanics since childhood, Hedy came up with various devices. During World War II, Lamarr sought to help the Allies fight against Nazism. With the help of friend, composer George Antheil, she developed a technique called "pseudo-random frequency agility" (PRHF), which allowed devices to automatically switch between frequencies and avoid signal interception.

Arne Skoog (1913-1999) Video: 2:55 https://youtu.be/MyYBzN6sgbE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyYBzN6sgbE Arne Skoog 1913-1999 Photo by sverigesradio.se (Escuchando La Radio) - #EnUnDiaComoHoy ???? Arne Skoog (1913-1999) un pionero en la Radiodifusion Internacional y la comunidad Diexista, fallecio el 7 de junio de 1999 en su amada provincia natal de Jamtland. En 1948, Arne, entonces un joven ingeniero en Radio Suecia, fundo el programa "Sweden Calling DXers" como una forma de mantener a los oyentes al tanto de las noticias en el mundo de la radio internacional. La onda corta cobro relevancia durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, y despues de la guerra, la escucha de onda corta se convirtio en un pasatiempo popular. Sin embargo, los aficionados necesitaban acceso a las ultimas noticias, y Arne penso que el mejor lugar para encontrarlas era en una estacion de onda corta. Muchos aficionados recuerdan a Arne presentando "Sweden Calling DXers", lo cual es curioso ya que el nunca lo hizo. Arne escribia los guiones, que eran leidos por colegas, primero en el Servicio en Ingles y luego en todos los idiomas de Radio Suecia, excepto, ironicamente, el sueco. Inicialmente, Arne recopilaba todas las noticias para el programa, pero pronto los oyentes comenzaron a enviar material. Casi inmediatamente, se comenzo a enviar una version escrita de los guiones a todos los que contribuian. En su apogeo, habia entre 1500 y 2000 nombres en la lista, que constituian un "Quien es Quien" de la comunidad de onda corta. Cuando Arne se retiro en 1978, en el 30 aniversario del programa, George Wood, quien ni siquiera habia nacido en 1948, tomo el relevo. Sin embargo, los tiempos cambiantes y la nueva gestion de Radio Suecia llevaron a cambios radicales con la introduccion de la radiodifusion por satelite en los anos 80. La lista de correo fue discontinuada, y el programa se convirtio en uno de transmision quincenal en ingles llamado "MediaScan", que se concentraba cada vez mas en la sintonizacion de satelites y noticias generales de medios escandinavos. Arne se opuso apasionadamente a los cambios e intento encontrar apoyo para revertirlos, una critica que no lo hizo popular con la gestion de la epoca. Pero Arne no era un ludita que luchaba contra el avance de la tecnologia. Ingeniero de corazon, abrazo la llegada de la computadora personal y, aunque habia desestimado la radiodifusion por satelite como inferior a la onda corta, elogio la llegada de la radiodifusion por Internet. Arne Skoog tambien fue uno de los fundadores de la Federacion Sueca de DX y, posteriormente, del Consejo Europeo de DX. Sin embargo, rechazo la afirmacion de que el era "el padre de todos los diexistas suecos", aunque el y su esposa Maj-Britt, a quien siempre se referia carinosamente como "Cactus", parecian tener una gran prole. En su retiro, Arne se dedico a su segundo pasatiempo, la fabricacion de violines, por la cual era bastante respetado. Enseno muchos cursos en esta habilidad. Recordando al gran diexista, y a las proximas generaciones de radioescuchas.
