Simple, students and journalists on the same subject written in all instances. That's just nothing changes. ("DX Kurjer" The editor Vasily Gulyaev, Astrakhan, Russia) Where did the wave? 12/15/2015 Last week in the edition "Herald of Rostov" began with calls from residents of our region with the question of where missing from the radio "Radio Russii". It was broadcasting on FM waves in the range of 65-74 MHz. For many of our readers, "Radio Russii" remains the only possibility to be aware of regional news: on satellite television and digital set-top boxes show only the "Moscow News". A simple antenna few who remained. - This is what happens? It turns out that it's easier to find out about the problems of people in the capital than to be aware of local news. First we cut the wire radio, issuing instead Terrestrial Receiver. Now they have stopped working. But "Radio Russii" radio station is common to the whole country. Why then do we as citizens cut off access to information - outraged callers to the editor listeners. Even readers complained about the rudeness on the part of the duty of Yaroslavl TV broadcasting center "Oaks", from where the broadcast of "Radio Russii". But with us, the journalists, the staff was correct. "Radio Russia" no one is turned off, and no one is trying to limit the right to receive information. From Friday, November 27, the station moved to FM-wave, where you can listen to in the range of 99.1 MHz. Changes due to the fact that the old transmitter can not provide adequate quality of the broadcast station. Once on the FM-radio wave translate "Mayak", the FM transmitter will be switched off "- said the attendant TV broadcasting center. Take FM-waves can most modern models of radios.

KAZAKH TV'S LONDON CORRESPONDENT RESIGNS, SAYS SHE'S "TIRED OF LYING" | Text of report by US-backed Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL) website on 9 December A London-based correspondent of Kazakhstan's leading state television channel dropped a bombshell last week, saying she was quitting her job because she was "tired of lying". "I am, at last, leaving," Bela Kudaibergenova wrote on Facebook on December 3, announcing her departure from Khabar television and its online affiliate 24.kz. "I feel extremely happy now. I realized that I have a conscience. I can't lie anymore." Kazakh social media lit up after the announcement, with some wholeheartedly supporting the well-known journalist's decision and others questioning whether it was prompted by Khabar's plans to shut down its London-based bureau. Speaking with RFE/RL's Kazakh Service, Kudaibergenova expounded on her reasons for leaving Khabar. She had already planned to leave the channel after the New Year's holidays, Kudaibergenova said, but decided to leave sooner after receiving a particularly disagreeable assignment. She was asked to cover a gathering organized by the Kazakh Embassy in London on December 2, in the lead-up to Kazakhstan's December 16 Independence Day, as proof that Kazakhs were "a happy nation". According to Kudaibergenova, she was expected to present the gathering at a luxury hotel as proof that "Kazakhstan is a great country respected by Britain and the international community." "That was it," Kudaibergenova said. "I felt that enough was enough, and I could not do it anymore." During her interview with RFE/RL, she accused Khabar of systematic disinformation of the Kazakh people. "I think the disinformation is wide-scaled and deep," she said. "It is not only in regard to the domestic situation, but regarding the situation abroad as well." She also described journalists as "cogs in the wheel." We find "experts" who say exactly what we "want them to say," Kudaibergenova explained, "and when they say something different, we just get rid of it." As an example, she said that ahead of her December 2 assignment the Kazakh Embassy recommended people for her to interview. Such interviews, she claimed, are organized to promote Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev and "lies about how great Kazakhstan is." Kudaibergenova, an ethnic Kazakh, was born in Soviet Russia's Astrakhan region and grew up in Moscow. She had worked for Khabar and 24.kz since 2003, working as a television correspondent in Moscow before moving to London in 2009. The Almaty-based Caravan weekly, which is affiliated with the Khabar television channel, criticized Kudaibergenova's move in a recent editorial. According to the newspaper, Kudaibergenova decided "to noisily shut the door" after she learned she would be let go soon. The editorial expressed regret that "some journalists do not respect their own profession." Kudaibergenova dismissed the comments as "nonsense."

BBC Uzbek ist scheduled um 1300-1330 UT, der Dushanbe Sender 4790v ist aber schon vor 1300 UT einige Minuten zum Warm-Up in der Luft. Es liegt wohl auf der Hand, von einem weiteren Musik Oper Jamming aus China zu sprechen. Die anderen KW Frequenzen der BBC Uzbek Services wurden schon immer auch von den chinesischen Sicherheitsbehörden gejammt, weil die Bevölkerung im Kashgar / Urumqi Grenzgebiet der Uzbek Sprache mächtig ist? Ähnlich den Uighurisch Aussendungen bei der IBB USA für die 20 Millionen Uighuren in West China, die auch schon 'ewig' gejammt werden. ``The B-15 HFCC database also has BBC Uzbek listed 1300 to 1330 UT on 13865 and 17780 kHz both via Oman, and 15510 kHz via Nakhon Sawan Thailand relay.`` 73 (Wolfgang Büschel, DX LISTENING DIGEST) BBC Uzbek Dushanbe 4790 kHz 1300-1330 UT, Dec 13 TAJIKISTAN / CHINA Mainland -- 4790 kHz Jamming against BBC Uzbek via Dushanbe Yangi Yul {4789.988 accurate} 1300-1330 UT on Dec 13.

Dezember 2015 anderte sich das Schema, nach dem ein Teil der Auslandssendungen aus Jerewan auf der Kurzwelle 4810 kHz ausgestrahlt wird. Die Nutzung dieser Frequenz scheint sich jetzt auf einen Programmblock von 15.00 bis 18.45 Uhr zu konzentrieren. Er enthalt weiterhin jene Sendungen, die fur die Nachbarlander Armeniens bestimmt sind und zwar in den Sprachen Jezidisch (Nordkurdisch), Assyrisch, Griechisch, Kurdisch, Aseri, Turkisch, Persisch sowie Arabisch. Dieser Programmblock konnte, moglicherweise auch nur zum Teil, auch auf der Mittelwelle 1314 kHz laufen. Das ist von Europa aus nur schwer durch Empfangsbeobachtungen verifizierbar, da diese Frequenz auch durch Sender aus Rumanien belegt ist. Seine Kurzwellensendungen fur Nahost hatte das damalige Radio Jerewan 1947 aufgenommen. 1959 folgten Ausstrahlungen nach Mittel- und Westeuropa, in die spater auch Beitrage in englischer, franzosischer und spanischer Sprache eingefugt wurden. Ab 1994 sendete Radio Jerewan auch in Deutsch. 2006 endete die Nutzung der Europafrequenzen dann auch bei den Eigenprogrammen des nunmehrigen "Offentlichen Radio Armeniens". Seitdem wird das Angebot in deutscher Sprache nur noch via Internet verbreitet. BLR - Belarus Radio Belarus im 25-m-Band Radio Belarus, das Auslandsprogramm des staatlichen weisrussischen Rundfunks, wird auf Kurzwelle auch im Winterhalbjahr 2015/16 durchweg auf Frequenzen im 25-Meterband ausgestrahlt. Bislang wurde dies nur im Sommerhalbjahr praktiziert. Konkret ist auf der Sendeanlage im Minsker Vorort Kalodziscy ein Sender von 12.00 bis 00.00 Uhr MEZ auf 11730 kHz im Einsatz. Von 18.05 bis 00.00 Uhr kommt ein zweiter Sender auf 11930 kHz hinzu. Diese Frequenzen sind dafur geeignet, Mitteleuropa bei Tageslicht von Minsk aus zu erreichen. Im Winter sind sie nach Einbruch der Dunkelheit jedoch aus physikalischen Grunden zu hoch und dann nur noch schlecht zu empfangen. Hiervon betroffen ist auch das Segment in deutscher Sprache, das auf Radio Belarus von 18.00 bis 19.40 Uhr lauft. Ein kleiner Ausschnitt des Programms von Radio Belarus ist auch auf Mittelwelle 1170 kHz aufgeschaltet, der mittlerweile letzten weisrussischen MW-Frequenz. Betrieben wird sie von einer Sendeanlage bei Sasnovy. Uber diese Sendeanlage lauft auch das erste Minsker Inlandsprogramm auf der Langwelle 279 kHz. Nach Angaben von Radio Belarus soll die Frequenz 1170 kHz von 16.00 bis 18.00 Uhr fur das polnische Programm zum Einsatz kommen. Empfangsbeobachtungen zeigen allerdings eine wahrscheinlich um 17.00 Uhr beginnende, bis 19.00 Uhr laufende Ausstrahlung. Uber die Ausstrahlungen von Radio Belarus hinaus ist vorgesehen, auf 1170 kHz von 05.00 bis 08.00 Uhr das erste Inlandsprogramm zu ubertragen und dabei die Abstrahlung der sonst auf Mitteleuropa gerichteten Antenne umzukehren, also in Richtung Moskau zu senden. Aktuell liegen keine Bestatigungen dafur vor, ob das nach wie vor in dieser Weise geschieht. MDA - Moldawien Neue Sendetechnik in Chişinău Seit Februar 2015 wird die Mittelwelle 873 kHz auf der Sendestation in Codru, einem Vorort der moldauischen Hauptstadt Chişinău, wieder mit einem Transistorsender betrieben. Es handelt sich diesmal um das Modell NX50 der kanadischen Firma Nautel, wie es seit 2011 auch auf der Sendestation Kalundborg (Danemark) fur den Restbetrieb der Langwelle 243 kHz eingesetzt wird. Jungste Empfangsbeobachtungen erbrachten auch in unseren Breiten ein befriedigendes Signal; mehrfach konnte die ID des rumansichsprachigen Ablegers von RFE/RL, "Radio Europa Libera", ausgemacht werden. Von Juli bis November 2013 war in Codru schon einmal ein Mittelwellen-Transistorsender mit 50 kW Leistung aufgebaut, seinerzeit das TRAM-Modell der Berliner Firma Transradio. Zur Verfugung gestellt worden war dieses Gerat durch ein Konsortium in Moskau, das sich um die Etablierung digitaler Ausstrahlungen in den AM-Bereichen bemuhte. In das damalige Projekt sollten auch Senderstandorte in der Ukraine und in Kasachstan einbezogen werden. Dazu kam es nicht mehr; die letzten noch verbliebenen Teile der Sendeanlage in Browary bei Kiew wurden 2013 eliminiert. In Codru wurde der TRAM-Sender zeitweise im digitalen Modus getestet, meist aber in konventioneller, analoger Form auf 873 kHz betrieben. Zum Jahresende 2013 gab die moldauische Seite den Sender schlieslich an den Hersteller zuruck. DX RE MIX NEWS # 931 from Georgi Bancov and Ivo Ivanov. Date: Dec.21, 2015.

In some localities the Luhansk region of Ukraine began broadcasting regional state radio "Pulse", it also can listen to the militia controlled by residents of some cities, according to the head of Lugansk regional military-civilian administration George Tuck. "Regional public radio" Pulse "can listen to the FM-band at a frequency of 105.9 Lisichansk, Severodonetsk, Rubizhne, flint," - he wrote in facebook. Also, according to him, the Ukrainian Radio is now available on the uncontrolled territories in Kiev Day, Kirovsk and Slavyanoserbsk. In addition, the full power of the transmitter is included in the village of Lugansk on the frequency 99.5 MHz. Therefore, said Tuck, the radio signal does not take only Stanichno Luhansk region, but also in Lugansk, under the control of militias. Tuck noted that this is an important step in informing the public about the activities of the Ukrainian government, an alternative to the propaganda that "overshadows the brain and the soul of residents" not under control of the central government of the country.

However, the Belarusian market radio is in a dream state. The stations broadcast for free, earning only advertising and additional services, such as greetings and songs in order. The total radio advertising market at the same time does not exceed $ 5 million. The main player in the radio market - the state and under its control structure, such as trade unions and the Youth Union. Belarusian businessmen do not perceive radio as a profitable investment. All frequencies are occupied in Minsk, new players enter the market is extremely difficult. Since the closure of the "Belarusian youth" information stations in the FM-band is not. All of them are entertaining. By the same rule, "75% of Belarusian music" is still technically has not been canceled, so playlists alike. Which radio stations are the most popular? A month ago, a private company Nielsen Admosphere presented the results of his research. The methodology of calculation is not reported, but most of all, the survey was conducted in Minsk as the capital won the radio. According to the results of this study proved the most popular "Russian Radio" feature - broadcasting only Russian- language music. "Russian Radio" (17% of the market) broadcasts in Minsk and Mogilev, but technically they are different structures. They are partially rebroadcast Russian radio station broadcasting the same name, adding their program. The original "Russian radio" belongs to "Russian Media Group" millionaires Vagit Alekperov and Leonid Fedun. However, in recent years around the radio scandal, their business is trying to transfer the management of Russia's "State Concert." Lack of Belarusian songs - a sign, and the second most popular radio. Among the founders of "Unistar" (15%) appear Belarusian State University and the German company MediaInvest Gmbh. "Unistar" can be caught in the vicinity of Minsk and Brest. The top three hit and "New Radio" (13%) - is one of media structures Federation of Trade Unions. It belongs to the same owner, and "Public Radio" (1%). Two drive has the Belarusian Republican Youth Union. Their station - "Pilot FM" (4%) and "Mental Radio" (1%). The greatest number of stations has Belteleradiocompany. Its structure consists of "Radius FM" (5%), "First National Channel" (3%), "Capital" (1%), "Culture" (1%) and the international radio "Belarus". "Capital" several years ago received frequency, vacant after the close of "Autoradio". On the eve of the 2010 elections, this private station broadcast commercials Andrei Sannikov and Uladzimir Nyaklyaeu - and officials have not forgiven. Radio stations also have channels. This radio "Mir" from the Commonwealth of Independent States and the radio "ONT". The corresponding frequencies allocated by the regional radio stations. Radio Minsk region called the "Minsk wave", and metropolitan station - radio "Minsk". Their popularity does not exceed 1%. Note that the announced bankruptcy of CJSC "Alfa-radio" was zilch. As it turned out, the activity of the eponymous radio station, which now controls "Sovetskaya Belorussia", is not affected. Probability of the event on the radio market - the return of the Russian license "Europe plus". The station should appear at the frequencies of the current radio "Hit FM" (1%), which is owned by the company Alla church. This is one of the few private players in the market. In addition to its place in the market takes Eugene Shereshevskii, which owns the radio "BA" (1%) and "Melodies of the century" (4%). Getting a Russian license - one way to win the audience. For example, last year's outdoor entertainment "Humor FM" (owner - "Gazprom Media") fairly quickly acquired 5%. The station predominantly Russian-speaking, but the news and weather out there read out in Belarusian. Another non-governmental radio - "The Rocks", which is currently specializes in chanson. The owner is the same as that of the Belarusian branch of the "Russian radio". The stations are located at the same address, they do not differ and news releases. The share of radio stations in the market Minsk: 1. "Russian Radio" - 17% 2. "Unistar" - 15% 3. "New radio" - 13% 4. "Radio Rocks" - 10% 5. "Radius FM" - 5% 6. "Humor FM" - 5% 7. "Melodies of the century" - 4% 8. "Pilot FM" - 4% 9. "First Channel" - 3% Others - 24% A year ago, the results of their research published a popular radio station Information and Analytical Center at the Presidential Administration. According to estimates of officials, ranking first in the state were "Radius FM" and "First National Channel", having a maximum coverage of the broadcast. Yegor Martinovic, nn.by (OnAir.ru) 73!
