As of Thursday (June 1st) transmissions to East Asia on 9875 kHz and transmissions to Europe on 11580 kHz will be discontinued. The transmission on 9875 kHz has been discontinued due to low modulation of the signal, causing listeners difficulty to hear what is being said during the broadcast. The 11580 kHz transmission is being discontinued due to poor signals in the target area. Despite the bad news, starting June 1st, a transmission on 7730 kHz at 0000 UTC (8 PM Eastern) will begin, targeting listeners in Western North America. This transmission will be heard every Thursday. There is also a new transmission on 7490 kHz at 2200 UTC (6 PM Eastern) every Sunday to Eastern North America - you could even tune in to that broadcast tomorrow!

The Alexander association team @Grimeton, Sweden * VOA Radiogram, 20-21 May 2017: Special doomed edition ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I will retire from the Voice of America on June 23, after 32 years as audience research analyst and broadcaster. I was hoping to continue to produce VOA Radiogram as a contractor. I approached various BBG and VOA offices. They all declined. And, therefore, the last VOA Radiogram will be the weekend on June 17-18 Money is not the issue. I am willing to work cheap. My main interest is to be authorized to continue the show and maintain a VOA email address, so that I can keep in contact with the audience. The irony is that, after retirement, I will finally have time to answer your emails - but I will no longer have access to the VOA email system to do that. But, the show must go on. In addition to the four weekly transmissions via the BBG North Carolina transmitting site, VOA Radiogram is also broadcast on WRMI in Florida twice on Sundays. I can hardly allow those half-hour slots to be filled by light recorded music. So, beginning the weekend of June 24-25, a program similar to VOA Radiogram, but with a new name and email address, will be broadcast by WRMI. More about the demise of VOA Radiogram, and the emergence of its replacement, in the weeks to come. http://swling.com/blog/2017/05/voa-radiogram-to-end-viva-la-radiogram/ (https://vk.com/dxing) * Survey of the World Radio KBS ------------------------------------------- World Radio KBS conducts a survey of its listeners, whose goal is to Improving the quality of our programs.

The territory chosen for the experiment can be Kiev. Positive, said the head of the inter-branch association "Radio Committee" Ekaterina Myasnikova, is the fact that such a meeting and conversation with the industry occur before such an important step for the television and radio information field is implemented, and not after. Therefore, during the meeting, both the advantages that digital radio can give and the risks associated with the introduction of new technology were expressed. Digital radio can be interesting considering the completeness of FM frequencies, it will free up the radio frequency resource and will require less funds for network maintenance and broadcasting than it is with the distribution of an analog signal. The interest in the project was expressed by the National Public Television and Radio Company of Ukraine, according to the law on public broadcasting in Ukraine, has no less than three radio channels to say. It is extremely difficult to accomplish this task within the FM range, so the development of new technologies can contribute to solving this issue. Member of the National Council Oleg Chernysh said that today the regulatory body is studying the technical side of the case: where to place the transmitters, what capacity they should be, which should be the contours of that experimental territory and so on. After the information is developed, the National Council represents its market. The regulator is open to the region's proposals and hopes for good cooperation with the broadcasters and the public (Source: National Council website).

UKRAINE BANS DOZENS OF RUSSIAN WEBSITES VOA News May 16, 2017 http://www.voanews.com/a/ukraine-bans-dozens-of-russian-websites/3852930.html Ukraine ordered the blocking of access to a number of Russian websites Tuesday in the latest round of sanctions since Russia annexed Crimea in 2014. President Petro Poroshenko's office announced the decree, which he signed a day earlier, banning operations of popular Russian websites, such as search engine Yandex, for three years. The listed websites were still functioning in Ukraine Tuesday, and it is unclear how and when the government plans to block them. The Ukrainian government cited security concerns, saying the ban was imposed partly to protect against companies "whose activities threaten the information and cyber security of Ukraine," according to a statement released by the Security and Defense Council. The latest round of sanctions adds Yandex and social media sites Odnoklassniki and Vkontakte to the list of over 400 Russian firms blacklisted by Kyiv since Moscow's annexation of Crimea and consequent pro-Russian separatist uprising in 2014. According to the Reuters news agency, the Kremlin has threatened retaliation.

President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko signed a decree that introduces sanctions for a period of three years against Russian companies in the Internet and media industries. Among them are Yandex and Mail.ru Group, social networks VKontakte and Odnoklassniki, Kaspersky Lab and Doctor Web. In addition, sanctions have been imposed against RBC, TV Center, VGTRK, NTV Plus and Zvezda. The decree also prohibits Ukrainian users from accessing the resources and services of Russian companies. https://www.kommersant.ru/doc/3298020 "Nashe Radio" and Orthodox Radio "Vera" came under sanctions Ukraine. Under the sanctions imposed by Ukraine on Russian companies, the radio station Nashe Radio, which broadcasts songs of Russian rock performers, as well as the Orthodox radio Vera, follows from the order of Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko published on Tuesday. Sanctions were adopted for a period of three years. Among the restrictions - the termination of the provision of telecommunications services and the use of public telecommunications networks, follows from the document. Also under Ukrainian sanctions - the state television and radio company VGTRK (including the department for the development of non- terrestrial TV channels), the National Media Group, the First Channel, the Life portal, the television channel Zvezda, and the Public Television of Russia. The media holding of RBC also fell under the sanctions.

DX LISTENING DIGEST 17-22, May 31, 2017 Incorporating REVIEW OF INTERNATIONAL BROADCASTING edited by Glenn Hauser, USA -------------------------------------------- ** BELARUS. International radio "Belarus" turns 55 years old. In May of the year 62 the first few programs in Belarusian began to leave Minsk for our compatriots abroad. For more than half a century the radio "Belarus" has managed to become a leader both in the media space of the country, both near and far abroad. Today, around the clock, the radio channel broadcasts in eight languages ??for a potential audience of 500 million people. Esters [sic; ethers?] from Belarus are heard in Europe, Asia, America, and Africa. International radio "Belarus" is the visiting card of our country. The channel develops the Internet space, being present in social networks and on interactive platforms, participates in the creation and support of a positive image of Belarus in the international space.

In December 1995, a breakthrough was made by Radio Babylon. The first time there was a test broadcast, and from March 1, 1996 began completely local broadcasting. At the source of the first FM station in Belgorod, Vitaliy Chebotarev (also known as Artur Likhachev), Stepanida Polyanska, later Vasiliy Pautov (on the air Valentin Vasiliev), Andrei Ludan (also Melomanov), Andrey Chistyakov and Vladimir Polovnev, Victor "Garryn" Plotnikov, who came up with the name "Babylon" and many other people, who later opened many other radio stations in Belgorod. Among those who then created Babylon - Dmitry Meshkov. He managed to work as a radio broadcaster, program director, and now - the sound engineer of the Belgorod Media Group. Babylon in a short time has gained immense fame, thanks to the popular musical content and communication with the original radio presenters. Local broadcasting made it possible to create various musical, humorous, analytical, children's programs, morning and evening shows. The hosts also appeared on the night air. Then a lot was new - formats, jingles, ad units and phone calls to the studio. The first and only Babylon stayed 2 years. Since 17.04.1998 Europa PLUS radio has appeared as a network partner on this frequency. For a while it was a symbiosis of Europa Plus-Babylon, but soon there was only Europa. And in July 2000 Europa Plus purchased its current home and moved to 103.6 MHz, where it is until today. (Https://vk.com/wall-83427404_5627) HISTORY DX. ============ Date : ? (After 1992 ...)

You can see the icon here - http://rusdx.blogspot.ru/2017/06/blog-post.html (Anatoly Klepov, Moscow, Russia) Mass media ========== FM and online: fundamental differences -------------------------------------------------- ---------- After the appearance of Dab and Dab + formats and Norway's attempts to completely switch to digital broadcasting, the theme of "sunset" of the era of FM radio again became relevant. Can it survive the onslaught of competitors online - says Valentin Malugov As before, to isolate the core of your audience, you need test tracks. After determining the kernel, a good editor should understand how to develop further, therefore, testing should not focus too long. Make a federal radio station, focusing on the capital, and the regions are unlikely to work out - the needs of the audience are very different, even if it is a question of Moscow and the Moscow region. If you want to grow from a regional station to a federal one, then probably without changes in the format and adaptation is indispensable. Most likely, going to large metropolitan areas, you will have to compress the base only to the most vivid and tested tracks. Quite another is the search for a viewer on the Internet, where he is the most capricious. For a long time it became clear that federal FM radio stations do not find such success on the Internet, as those projects that were originally conceived in the network. Why is this happening? Internet broadcasting: search for topics and programming features In the World Wide Web, everything changes almost instantaneously, and the main factor of success here is the "niche" of projects. There is no point in creating a second "Europe Plus", "Road Radio" or another information radio station - you need to come up with something unique. Here there are also their difficulties - rapid audition, quite complex targeting, great competition and specific accessibility. Competition here is many times greater, but you can still take your place under the sun thanks to competent promotion. "Shot" can only be a unique idea with the condition of professional programming. In regions of Russia, stations that tell about their land are still successful. Only to tell this they must be clever, interesting, competent and beautiful. The regional listener is more important than what is happening around, here the radio station still plays the role of informant. Federal broadcasters tend to background sound (musical) or to analyze a particular problem (conversational), but "to be the first" and "to give news" for the capital projects is not the most important thing. Internet radio stations are more likely to listen to the background; in the online radio stream you will not add much text about the region, but you can make it to your family and friends due to micro content (up to 30 sec). To propagate certain regions here can only be unobtrusive, even swiftly, so that listeners from other parts of Russia do not have time to switch the channel. And what's next? Thesis about the future of radio in FM and the Internet, about competition with music services, I would say this: FM and the Internet exist together and will continue to exist; Federal FM will attack the tastes of the regions; Adherence to radio stations is gradually shifting from FM to the Internet; The main trend is to increase the feed rate of the material and the mini-format; The radio will retain its positions precisely due to the function of the content rotation, due to which it will differ from the music services; The future for radio aggregators: many channels in one application, on one site; Automation of programming processes; Visualization of the radio with further integration into the video podcast (Digispot, Avra). Since all the main classical formats have existed a long time ago, the future of both FM and the Internet is behind a unique and interesting compilation of sometimes incompatible elements. After all, the main task of the radio project today is to attract, interest and "not to irritate." That is why in one flow in the Internet environment there can be, for example, melodic dubstep, old megahits of the 80s and modern melodies (CHR). When you are traveling in a car, your choice is limited to approximately 50-60 FM radio stations. On the Internet you can roam in search of the necessary flow indefinitely and, I am sure, will find something that you like, much faster. Why do I believe in Internet broadcasting? Because it is becoming more accessible and does not limit the choice. Unfortunately, or fortunately, this process can not be stopped.
