By Ed Royce, April 14, 2015 6:58 p.m. ET Vladimir Putin has a secret army. It's an army of thousands of "trolls," TV anchors and others who work day and night spreading anti- American propaganda on the Internet, airwaves and newspapers throughout Russia and the world. Mr. Putin uses these misinformation warriors to destabilize his neighbors and control parts of Ukraine. This force may be more dangerous than any military, because no artillery can stop their lies from spreading and undermining U.S. security interests in Europe. Neither can the U.S. international...

RADIO MIRAYA via UNKNOWN SITE 11560. April 9 at 0300 opening. Good signal on its new frequency, while 9940 was usually poor at best. So I thought possibly now from a different transmitter site - maybe Moldova/Pridnestrovia. But e-mail from Sergey Omelchenko, Pridnestrovsky Radiotelecentr Technical Director, says, like 9940, it's not from their site. Mr. Omelchenko responded to my inquiry in just 2 hours. Of course broadcasters and transmitter operators have sometimes been known to deny certain relays. Mr. Omelchenko has been very good about responding promptly to reception reports and inquiries. As I previously reported, he responded to my reports of Radio Payam-e-Doost in 16 hours and Dengê Kurdistanê in less than 5 hours. And the very nice full-data e-cards were different but both depicted antennas. This allows QSLing 2 broadcasters that are difficult to verify directly. Of course Miraya can easily be verified via Fondation Hirondelle; last year they responded to my postal report with a QSL card in 9 days (Wendel Craighead, Prairie Village, Kansas, April 9, DX LISTENING DIGEST) Re: UNIDENTIFIED STATION SITE - Radio Miraya Transmitter Site? {Comic FMO broker company policy? ?

Media =========== * President of the "European media group" Catherine Tikhomirov about the prospects for digital broadcasting. Hot on the heels of the news that in 2017 Norway fully pass on the broadcasting format DAB, offer a detailed commentary of the President of the "European media group" Catherine Tikhomirova about the prospects for digital broadcasting. Digital broadcasting: sensation without sensation This week radiosoobschestvo and social network users excited the news that in 2017 Norway is fully transferred to digital broadcasting in the format of DAB. Here are just a practice news this message is not, as stated this was a long time ago. To go to this format of Norway took 22 of the year: the first experiments in DAB broadcasting were held in 1995. Around the same time, there was talk about digital broadcasting in Russia. But if in 22 years Norway has introduced this format, we have the matter further conversations did not get. And, perhaps, for the better. On the prospects of digital broadcasting says President of the "European media group" Catherine Tikhomirov. Digital transmissions - not a new way of doing radio Digital Broadcasting - not a new way of doing radio, and simply another (different from the usual FM-broadcasting) signal transmission method. These technologies have DAB, where broadcasting is the same in the FM-band, there is a technology DRM (by the way, adopted in Russia), where broadcasting is carried out on the short, medium and long waves. But actually it does not change: as traditional radio format and the media in any way does not suffer from the emergence of new technology. In the air remains the same station, made by the same principles. What are the main advantages of digital technology? Firstly, it allows you to fit 8-12 stations in the piece of the radio frequency spectrum, where it was broadcast to a radio station. Thus, increasing the amount of air frequencies. For example, if we used the digital standard DAB, then at the current frequency Europe Plus we could run 8 or 12 varieties of Europe Plus, add all the directions (Europa Plus dance, pop, rock, etc.), which today can be listened to Online radio stations. Secondly, if the network is installed and adjusted, it solves the problem of broadcasting in inaccessible areas. However, there is a digital broadcast and weaknesses. First of all, it differs sometimes less resistant to interference and less good quality signal, because the applied compression technology, which does not allow to fully convey the sound in its original form (which is extremely important for music radio stations). Predict the death of traditional radio at least naively The advent of digital broadcasting does not change the habits of hearing themselves. The fact is that during the occurrence of the digital radio in 1995 as the current Internet has not yet existed, nor was modern and new media devices. Indeed, today there are certain changes in the process of listening to the radio. Number of listeners is not reduced even in the US, the country's most technologically advanced, listen to the radio for more than 90% of the population, with more than 60% every day. This figure is stable in Russia that abroad. But the share of listening through a particular device change: habitual combined radio listening via the Internet or media players, but it has no relation to digital broadcasting. We can assume that digital broadcasting would evolve in cars, but you need to have agreed to this largest automobile company. Since then, however, conceived as digital radio, there was a revolution in the field of new media, so - if you say that will appear in cars - it is rather a technology connected car, which will listen to the radio in the car via the Internet. So today, rather, it is necessary to talk not about digital broadcasting, and how to adapt to the new radio for yourself Wednesdays. And if we say that today is an alternative to traditional broadcasting, it's just all kinds of new media. The future of digital broadcasting in Russia Program development of digital broadcasting in Russia, which was adopted in the early 2010s, in 2013 was canceled due to lack of funds. The cost of launching digital broadcasting, including the replacement of the entire fleet of transmitters and, more importantly, the replacement of the entire fleet of receivers, estimated at more than $ 400 million. The state (especially in the current environment) will not spend money for that purpose, from the largest broadcasters also have no desire to get involved and opportunities in project with unclear prospects monetization. Find one enthusiast who would draw for an entire industry, it is hardly possible. Therefore, those who are really thinking about the future, think about new media.
