I contacted Alexander Firsov from the hotel by phone, and Alexander contacted Yuri Loburts. Yuri flew in from Novosibirsk to meet me. The guys were, so to speak, excellent and educated people. We drank wine, talked, and left with very good impressions. Alexander gave me a pack of reports on the reception of various foreign radio stations to send them through Bulgaria. Unfortunately, at the airport in Sofia, customs officers took them and even a typewriter brand "Moscow" - I bought it in Moscow, since such were very rarely available here.

We found it in Saransk. We fixed the unit. We will install it on Wednesday morning. And pay off the debt (the money has arrived for now, and what will happen next - we will see later).

The proposal was reportedly supported by both the State Duma and the FSB. This is due to concerns about the transfer of information about Russian communication networks to foreign intelligence agencies, which could lead to an increased risk of cyber attacks.

(https://telesputnik.ru/) ======================================= TV BROADCASTS OF THE USSR OF THE 60S, 70S, 80S. ===================================== The program "Control for adults". --------------------------------------------- The method of observing a person, and especially a group of people, is a labor-intensive process, but at the same time, an interesting and exciting activity. And if you predict the situation, create such conditions for the controlled subject in order to more fully reveal his personal qualities - this requires not only high skill of a journalist, but also deep knowledge of human psychology. It was precisely such a project, combining these seemingly completely diametrically opposed things, that became the series of programs "Control for Adults" (originally called "Parents' Meeting"), which existed on the First Channel of Central Television from 1978 to 1994.

An "anti-Soviet" receiver. ------------------------------------------------------- Unrealistically high sensitivity for a household device and a hidden "Western" range.

What did they listen to in Gzhatsk? --------------------------------------------------------- What kind of radios could you buy in the Gzhatsk district store? I think they were inexpensive and compact. For example, "Moskvich" or "ARZ-54". These "warm" ones, their body heated up quite a bit during operation, were well known to the residents of Smolensk. They provided reception of the main radio stations of the Soviet Union on long and medium waves. They were usually tuned to the Mayak radio station, where, in addition to news and announcements, classical and pop music was played.

In the new episode of the program, the host decided to test artificial intelligence and find out whether it could replace a living person and take over the program. There is an opinion that recently one can increasingly hear that artificial intelligence will be able to replace radio presenters in the future.
