Since late 90s, from Stepanakert - the capital of separatist Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (ex Azer, now pro Armenian) was on the air radio station, rather radio monster, broadcasting in wide frequency range around 9677 kHz with super distorted audio. It is ex-jamming transmitter which was used in 80s against Radio Liberty. The broadcasts were in Azeri two times weekly - each by 30 minutes and repeated on next days, resp. Tue/Wed and Fri/Sat. The Russian DXers recognized their ID as "Edaletin Sese Radiosu" (=Voice of Justice). Already 2-3 radio seasons the transmissions are at 0820-1420vary (DST from end of March 0720-1320) on 9677 and irregularly 0410-0610 (DST 0310-0510) on 11760 also with wide range but on 11743-11763 kHz. According to the WRTH it is V of Talyshistan; according to Ivo Ivanov is Radio Ictimai, etc., but I don't know some DXer who recognize the exact ID. Some notes: On 9677 kHz there are not two stations - on as jamming; Ictimai in Azeri means Public; in Azerbaijan there is not DST but in Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh there is DST.

(Howard) MISCELLANEOUS 82 years ago was patented radio December 26, 1933 was patented one of the most important inventions in the history of mankind - the radio. On the creation of the wireless telegraph, as previously referred to as a great invention, it had to work for years. Ironically, to name, but the most significant development radio electronics researcher it is very difficult, because each scientist was able to bring his invaluable contribution to the development of this science. It is worth remembering the Serbian inventor Nikola Tesla, an Italian radio Guglielmo Marconi, and, of course, a Russian physicist and electrical engineer Alexander Stepanovich Popov, which is March 24, 1896 for the first time was able to send a telegram. Undoubtedly, this list is very narrow, but works just above scientists and formed the basis for further research. The very frequency modulation is used to transmit the audio signal has been proposed, and in consequence, and patented, outstanding American radio engineer Edwin Armstrong. The researcher was able to minimize interference in the air, making it possible to switch the radio to a new phase in its development. The history of the radio has a lot of controversial issues about inventors who worked on this issue. For example, in some countries, the creator of the first radio waves is considered the Italian scientist Guglielmo Marconi, but in Russia believe that it is the inventor of radio Alexander Popov. Russians annually celebrate outstanding date in the calendar, May 7, which is specially reserved for the celebration of the Day of Radio. In today's world the rapid development of microelectronics not only replaced the outstanding inventions, and vice versa, became auxiliary bridge to gain new possibilities of radio that had previously not been able to reach the scientists of past millennia. At the beginning of the XXI century it has become a very popular paging, which is based on a system of personal radio. Today, mobile communication has taken a dominant position in the population. But scientists are in no hurry to remove the radio on the second or third plan, as confidence in the reliability and relevance of scientific developments in radioelektronnike. With the advent of radio has become the life of any person, no doubt, much more comfortable. Many scientists jokingly say that it is a radio could save humanity from sadness, as the latest news on the wireless network is always much faster time to scatter all over the world, rather than the dissemination of information by various prints. The main rival of radio, and many publishers today is the Internet, where users can not only listen to interesting news, and read them. Despite pessimistic results statistics still need to pay attention to the fact that for several years, even digital broadcasting has not been able to displace analog radio.

BC-DX 1235, 9 January 2016 edited by Wolfgang Bueschel, Germany ------------------------------------------------------ ARMENIA/AZERBAIJAN Since late 90s, from Stepanakert - the capital of separatist Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (ex Azer, now pro-Armenian) was on the air radio station, rather radio monster, broadcasting in wide frequency range around 9677 kHz with super distorted audio. It is ex-jamming transmitter which was used in 80s against US-Radio Liberty. The broadcasts were in Azeri two times weekly - each by 30 minutes and repeated on next days, resp. Tue/Wed and Fri/Sat. The Russian DXers recognized their ID as "Edaletin Sese Radiosu" (= Voice of Justice). Already 2-3 radio seasons the transmissions are at 0820-1420vary UT (DST from end of March 0720-1320) on 9677 kHz, and irregularly 0410-0610 UT (DST 0310-0510) on 11760 kHz. Also with wide range but on 11743-11763 kHz. According to the WRTH it is V of Talyshistan; according to Ivo Ivanov is Radio Ictimai, etc., but I don't know some DXer who recognize the exact ID. Some notes: On 9677 kHz there are now two stations - on as jamming. Ictimai in Azeri means Public; in Azerbaijan there is not DST but in Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh there is DST. The sounds, the speakers, the music between the news are the same now as were in the past by V of Justice.
