(Sergey Izyumov, Moscow, Russia) * Putin supported the idea of creating a single radio protocol 03.02.2016 | 15:54 Russian President Vladimir Putin has supported the idea of creating a single radio protocol used by departments. He stated this at a meeting with businessmen, members of club leaders, the correspondent of "Gazety.Ru". As the president of one of the participants of the meeting, Russia buys various innovative radio equipment in all departments, "but no one will agree that they work in a single standard, a single protocol." "I propose to create on the basis of the ASI (Agency for Strategic Initiatives), a working group to optimize the introduction of the single radio standard for the whole of Russia", - he said. Putin supported the idea. "There are good developments, and together with the special services and the concerned agencies to come to the result, I agree," - said the head of state. (http://www.gazeta.ru/) Canada. ----------- Canadian Radio Directory I would like to introduce you to http://www.canadianradiodirectory.com/ It is a web site of all the FM and AM stations in Canada. Some of you may remember I published two editions of Radio Ontario through the Ontario DX Association back in the '90s. These guides listed all the FM, AM & TV stations in the province. Since undertaking these publications, I have often thought about making a guide for all of Canada. Hence Canadian Radio Directory, designed for: - enthusiasts - travellers - DX'ers CRD works on iPhones so one can check it out 'in the field' [I believe Androids are ok too]. If one chooses, you can also print the pages [FireFox seems to work the best]. Stations that go through the 'normal' application process are marked as 'new' until they are known to be on the air [see below]. You will see some listings with strike-through. These are stations that are known to be off-air but are still marked as operational by the Industry Canada database OR stations that have to leave the air or their current frequency. Stations that use the 'back door' [non-public] process to gain a licence are not listed until they are know to be on the air. Stations that broadcast illegally [without a licence] are not listed. Tyendinaga ON and Kimmirut NU come to mind. Unlike most other lists you may have encountered, CRD has the station name as well as the official call sign. Readers will know that many stations in Canada do not use their calls [I personally feel they are superfluous and hold little meaning to the public]. Clicking on the station name will take you to their web site. In the case of CBC/IRC stations, it will take you to the respective CBC regional station. I hope you will find Canadian Radio Directory useful. If it is licensed and on air, it's in CRD no matter how big or small. Feel free to contact me if you notice any updates or corrections. Take it with you, travel and discover. If you help keep CRD up to date, it will be kept up to date. Finally, enjoy listening to radio.

WORLD RADIO DAY 2016 -------------------------------------- 13 February is World Radio Day - a day to celebrate radio as a medium; to improve international cooperation between broadcasters; and to encourage major networks and community radio alike to promote access to information, freedom of expression and gender equality over the airwaves. This year, the UNESCO theme for World Radio Day is "Radio in Times of Emergency and Disaster". Radio still remains the medium that reaches the widest audience worldwide, in the quickest possible time.

(Russian radio and television) Primorsky Krai. ------------------------ Primorsky branch RTRS tested the analog signal level of "Radio Russii" RTRS Branch "Primorsk KRTPTS" sent a mobile laboratory in Alex-Nikolskoye village to verify the availability and quality of "Radio Russii" and the television program signal. The ground began to appeal to local residents, who complained about the lack of radio and TV signals. The measurements were carried out in the villages Korfovka, Lviv St. Nicholas and Alexei Nikolsky, who are in the border area of the Russian-Chinese border, quite far from the nearest big city - Ussuriysk. Apparently, this explains the test results: in all villages accessible only digital signal packet RTRS-1 (first multiplex). Broadcast stations are in each of the villages, so the signal "numbers" - excellent quality. Signal "Radio Russii" at a frequency of 106.0 MHz was able to accept only in the village of St. Nicholas Lviv, which is closest to Ussuriysk, and broadcast from the radio. But in this case, reception is possible only on the outdoor antenna, a small-sized portable receiver antenna will be sufficient.

He took on 1530 kHz with 18.12 transfer to the Russian, a strong disturbance was from Romania. I listened to 18.38, but could not understand. I thought, "Degen" buggy. After trying to not take. Almost all summer took on 1630 kHz religious station. Do not announce, does not comment, only Orthodox prayer. The signal is weak to complete decay. In Ukraine, the signal is stronger. It looks broadcast from Romania and other Balkan countries. Took 2014. That's all I have found to these stations.

Re: [dxld 16-03] 25 years since the attack on the Lithuanian TV tower Slightly after 1992, immediately before they moved away to Jülich, the Radio Vilnius transmissions to North America had been listed as "Krasnodar", i.e. attached to the Tbilisskaya plant. Did such a site change take place at all or had Radio Vilnius been left at Maiac up to the end? This is in general an intriguing aspect: It appears to me that back then no one in the outside world realized how the Maiac (aka. Grigoriopol aka. Kichinev) transmitter plant continued to be used for other broadcasts during the spectacular events there. This goes not only for shortwave, even 1548 kHz was abroad still believed to originate from Vinnytsa/Ukraine, while in fact it went out from the very same transmitter room than 999 kHz. Oh, and by the way: The events from a quarter century ago should indeed be well remembered. Meanwhile there are serious fears that The Immigration Crisis could push the European Union into its collapse as well (and of course hopefully not such a violent one). Unreflected old socializations are part of the problem. Just take a look at the authoritarian attitude often shown by Merkel and Gauck. In a sense they still live in the GDR (Kai Ludwig, Germany, dxldyg via DX LISTENING DIGEST) Good point, Kai. History seems to repeat itself --- Protest at TV "Moldova 1" http://www.trm.md/en/social/protest-la-moldova-1/ Ironic, eh? Protests at Chisinau TV tower because of Moldova's former Telecommunications Minister (having Radiocomunicatii and TV Centre as Ministry's subordinates) secretly appointed the country's prime- minister. Radio Vilnius from Maiac was still on in June'92 at least; no idea what happened later, though. And to all those sympathizing and preferring to perceive one-sided opinion regarding the conflict at the Vilnius TV tower - it`s a pity you don`t understand Russian to find out the other standpoint, from the other side of the barricades:. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6WFPBjXXqs (Leo Barmaleo, Moldova, ibid.) I assume Kai does understand Russian, having grown up in the DDR (gh) It's an easy guess for anybody what the Soviet propaganda has to say about that. Posted by: (Tudor Vedeanu, Romania, dxldyg via DX LISTENING DIGEST) Stereotype-fueled wishful thinking, you'll never guess unless you listen and understand what they're saying, in fact. This comes from a well-known, new-generation journalist Aleksandr Nevzorov from Leningrad's 5th channel having a cult status back then. Recently read his interview to the Russian service of Polish radio. If curious find/google-translate it - surprise guaranteed (Leo, ibid.) No surprises at all. I read about Nevzorov and the Nashism. According to him the Lithuanians were some fascists traitors who deserved to die because they were shooting at the Soviet troops roaming through Vilnius with their tanks and their guns. Same old Soviet story (Tudor Vedeanu, Romania, ibid.) Tudor, Nevzorov ain`t as straightforward and simplistic as wikipedia tries to picture him, LOL. That`s why I suggested reading his recent interview to Polish radio. It is this very interview that is full of surprises. I witnessed similar nationalistic frenzy in Chisinau in the 90s. With Moldovan radio openly calling 'all volunteers to Tighina' (Bendery). No surprise its Maiac relays were cut off at last. With totalitarian- styled jamming shortly engaged by Moldovans against Radio Pridnestrovye afterwards. As jamming was rather ineffective, near- field at best (which is not surprising - 150 kW against 1,000 kW), a more drastic countermeasure was planned - to blow up the Maiac facilities. Now that`s true democracy and national self-consciousness! I can remember a funny article in a Chisinau-issued local weekly "Teleradio" (a su'92 edition). A listener from Romania (!) was asking on which wavelength he might listen to Radio Pridnestrovye. Response was deliberately evasive, exact frequency never 'disclosed'. First instance of trolling? LOL There might have been happening similar not-so-pleasant behind the scenes events in Lithuania. Just like Nevzorov mentioned in his video (some horrible things told on the air before the tower was seized and transmissions halted). And BTW, Romania ("mare") was no better then, sending arms and mil. instructors to Moldova in the 90s (to help 'pacify' 'mankurts' of Pridnestrovye and Gagauzia, most of these having lived there for ages). Dont want to immerse myself in this any deeper as it goes off-topic. One can always refer to BBC Monitoring, FBIS or RFE/RL daily reports to refresh those bitter memories (Leo, ibid.) For those interested in the events of those times, I found an interview with Lithuania's first president, Landsbergis, in Russian with English subtitles. Well worth watching, for a non-Russian opinion, and I'd guess the view of the vast majority of Eastern Europeans who have experienced Soviet/Russian hospitality: http://www.rferl.org/media/video/lithuania-russia-landsbergis-interview/27482994.html (Walt Salmaniw, BC, ibid.) It is very naïve for us in the west to believe that the truth lies somewhere in the middle, between western sources and those of the Soviet Union, now Russia. In fact, the Russian press is so totally government controlled and purposefully full of lies, half-truths and disinformation to render it not worthy of quoting. The truth, therefore, lies not in the middle at all. For a reputable Russian source, and there are fewer and fewer, I would recommend Dozhd [DOZD`]. Another fascinating group exposing the lies of Russian media, often very crude, is http://Stopfake.org/en where there are thousands of examples. I remember one obviously fake RT "exposé" regarding the downing of MH 17 where recordings were "leaked" of supposed CIA operatives discussing the downing. During the recording, they go back and forth, changing from British accented English to American, and very stilted, an obvious direct translation from Russian. Of course, the same is already being seen with the release of the judicial inquiry on the polonium poisoning and assassination of Alexander Litvinenko. Russia's claiming that he poisoned himself. I'm sure that he purchased his polonium supply at his local hardware store. Let's see, who should I believe, Russian media, or the 346 page findings of an inquiry written by an esteemed judge? On MH17, the Dutch investigation (which found that it was shot down by a BUK from Russian occupied Donbas), or Sputnik news which claimed that the airliner was stuffed with corpses, and then brought down by the west to provoke an international incident (it's true! That's one of many ridiculous theories one can read in Russian media). You decide for yourself. Me, I'm siding with Radio Vilnius. 73, (Walt Salmaniw, BC, ibid.) As they say, the truth is still out there --- All of the above doesn`t necessarily concern Russia only. I believe mass media of other countries may potentially suffer the same fate. Government-made news has long been deemed propaganda http://foreignpolicy.com/2013/07/14/u-s-repeals-propaganda-ban-spreads-government-made-news-to-americans/ In Moldova, for example, mass-media is strictly controlled by ruling parties (read - government) and oligarchs. If you are 'siding with Radio Vilnius', shall I take you were a long- time listener of Radio Moscow just because Radio Vilnius was followed (or preceded) by R. Moscow's programming on the same frequency beamed to N. America? LOL I for one ain`t siding with anybody. Killing or injuring people, whatever the purpose or reasoning is, is inadmissible. That`s my understanding. Regardless of where it`s happening - in Moldova, Ukraine or elsewhere. For whatever reason. Full stop (Leo, ibid.) Leo, I certainly did listen to Radio Moscow, and Radio Kiev as they were known in those days, and yes, they did use the same transmitter facilities. In my case, they were from the Soviet Far Eastern transmitter sites, especially Petropavlosk-Kamchatksky. I wondered then why the central authorities continued to allow Radio Vilnius and Radio Kiev to continue, as both distanced themselves from Moscow. I assumed that with all of the chaos of the late 80s and early 90s, there was no strong central control. I did miss both stations after the FE transmitters were turned off (although for a few years, they continued with Radio Moscow/The Voice of Russia and Belarussian Radio), effectively eliminating their messages from being heard from the mid West US/Canada, westward. They both became more of a DX target. Today, even WRMI's relay of RUI is not that well heard on the west coast. 73, (Walt Salmaniw, BC, ibid.) ``As they say, the truth is still out there. All of the above doesn`t necessarily concern Russia only, I believe mass media of other countries may potentially suffer the same fate`` Not just potentially, history is already repeating. I found it rather frightening the penultimate weekend to listen to a description of the current situation by a Polish journalist. As you may have heard, it has been decided that all staff of Polskie Radio and TV Polska will be fired and hired back when deemed appropriate. The Polish journalist said that this is just the same as the so-called "verification" done in 1981. By the way, one should not take it as a matter of course that there has been no violence elsewhere. As an example there was an immediate neighborhood of TV and the barracks of the MfS unit Wachregiment Feliks Dzierzynski at Berlin-Adlershof. There have not been much talks about it, but in autumn 1989 this neighborhood had turned into a threatening one. ``Killing or injuring people, whatever the purpose or reasoning is, is inadmissible`` And those who still think that it can solve anything may take a look at Afghanistan, Iraq or Libya (Kai Ludwig, dxldyg via DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MOLDOVA.

Today, Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology and Mass Media conducts regular competition for the right of broadcasting terrestrial broadcasting. Among the objects of competition for ?? 8 and 9 as the only declared challenger state budgetary institutions of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) National Broadcasting Company "Sakha" (NBC "Sakha"), intending to obtain the right to exercise of terrestrial analogue broadcasting in short wave. For this purpose, two transmitters to be used with the installation location in a. Tulagino about Yakutsk: 250 kW at a frequency of 7295 kHz and 100 kW at a frequency of 7345 kHz for the declared schedule (local time - GMT + 6:00.) Monday Friday: from 06.00 to 09.00; from 12.00 to 14.00; 18.00 to 21.00 Saturday Sunday: from 07.00 to 14.00; 18.00 to 21.00 According to the director of the Directorate of radio NBC "Sakha" Maxim Berezin, broadcast is scheduled to begin in the spring, most likely - in May. For our part, we hope that after receiving the broadcasting license broadcasting can be started earlier. Add in conclusion that it is in these days of January the radio station number 1 branch RTRS "RTPTS the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia)" in the village Tulagino where a shortwave signal NBC "Sakha" will spread to the entire territory of the republic and to reach the most remote corners of the globe, is celebrating its fiftieth anniversary.

No, Ron Howard says the BBC 4790 signal today was already on with carrier at 1247; and CNR1 jammer was already on 4970 at 1246. BTW, the BBC 4790 1300-1330 Uzbek via DB has failed to show up in HFCC B-15 updates. 7480, Jan 23 at 0143, weak talking vs a whine, bad transmitter or jammed? Evidently the latter, as 01-02 on 7480 is IBB in Uighur via Dushanbé, irking the ChiCom imperialists who think East Turkistan is theirs.
