I asked for your assistance and feedback on the collective letter to the All-India Radio about the frequency change. A big thanks to those who answered, and also I propose to "sign" the appeal to those who have not yet "signed up", but just want to hear Russian speech more often in the square in their receiver. I enclose a rough outline of the letter, I ASK YOUR ADDITIONS and ADJUSTMENTS to send to my mail varzin- ne@yandex.ru, so as not to "spam" the group, thanks to which, I have the opportunity to apply to you. Mallika Gupta (announcer-presenter of All India Radio) replied that, I quote "I offer my help in translation if it is needed". Therefore, forget about the lines in English. Suggestions and remarks set out in Russian. I would be glad if you post your comments before November 29 at 11:59 PM GMT (-3 UTC). Below, you will find your FI, city, e-mail, email address or phone number (as you wish), your blogs, if you are (specify the web address) and just belonging to the dx-signatures to confirm the identity for the Hindus that you - "a living person", you can simply "specify" as a listener. For example, Victor Varzin, Leningrad region, Kommunar, varzin-ne@yandex.ru, active listener, monitor of the directory Radio broadcasting in Russian and KBS World Radio; subscriber deneb / opendx, member of the DX- Club SPB, will be published as a table. A collective appeal of radio listeners of the Russian service of All-India Radio. Hello, dear employees of the Russian edition of A.I.R., employees of the Foreign Broadcasting Department A.I.R., as well as employees of the technical department of A.I.R.! We would like to draw your attention to the unsuccessfully chosen frequency for broadcasting in the winter period for the Russian edition of the All-India Radio - 15140 kHz from 16:15 to 17:15 UTC. At this frequency, on the territory of Russia, transmission at this time is not audible. This is due to poor passage at frequencies above 12,000 kHz in the dark. When drawing up the schedule for the winter season, it was apparently not taken into account that in the winter in Russia it gets dark early, accordingly, it is necessary to use other frequencies. It's a shame that due to such omissions, many Russian-speaking listeners of the All-India Radio remain without receiving the programs, and the corporation is wasting money allocated from the budget. It is interesting that, recently, the frequencies of some programs of the All-India Radio of the following language services were changed: English, Sinhalese, Dari and Pashto, to avoid interference from other stations. Why not for the Russian service to change or allocate another frequency for analogue broadcasting. In this regard, the request to influence the situation and show professionalism in solving the problem. Select another frequency for analogue broadcasting of the Russian service or replace the current one. In previous years, the passage in the winter period was observed at frequencies of 11,620 kHz and, especially, at 9595 kHz, which are not currently used. Now the frequency of 9595 kHz is also not suitable, because during 16:15 - 17:15 UTC broadcasts the Voice of Turkey radio, using a powerful transmitter. Ideally, it would be to conduct test transmissions on several frequencies and choose the best of them, according to the radio listeners. (on your own, try 7555 kHz, what do you think?) All India Radio is one of the most important and important sources, telling about modern India, political and public news, as well as a means of promoting Indian culture in Russia. I note that this year marked the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between India and Russia. I look forward to your cooperation and activity! 73!

But even in the near "without the Internet" past, it was and was quite massive: brochures, posters, catalogs, leaflets, calendars and even bright outdoor advertising. To attract attention to the already scarce goods, funny cartoons, poster slogans, and beautiful girls and even "celebrities" of that time were used in the course ... - https://hi-tech.mail.ru/review/sovetskaja_reklama_tehniki/?frommail=1 ++ In some photos advertising radio receivers, tape recorders and TVs. RUSSIA ======== Regional Network ---------------------------- The regional network of "Novoe Radio ("New Radio") has replenished with nine new cities: Voronezh, Perm, Tver, Krasnoyarsk, Barnaul, Kaluga, Yaroslavl, Krasnodar and Saratov. Broadcasting in new cities, three of which are a million people, will strengthen the positions of the radio station in the central, southern parts of Russia and Siberia. The total population of cities is about 7 million people. "Novoe Radio" began broadcasting at the end of 2015 and today has 93 transmitters with a zone of confident reception in cities and towns of Russia, CIS and Baltic countries. The development of the New Radio broadcasting network remains a priority for EMG. "The EMG regional service daily works on expanding the network of" Novoe Radio ". This pool of cities is not compiled in a random way. We received the greatest number of inquiries from listeners from there. In addition, I want to note that in two new cities with a population of one million people in Voronezh and Perm, as well as in Tver, the radio station will be operated by EMG affiliates operating in the regions. Hence two obvious advantages: the format will be developed by a team of professionals, the holding will be able to increase the share of its presence on the local market, "commented Yulia Isayeva, EMG Regional Development Director. "Novoe Radio" is a multi-format project combining exclusive technologies - audio and video, allowing to produce unique content, perform live broadcasts and conduct acoustic concerts. The basis of the music format of the radio station is the main Russian songs: unconditional hits and bright novelties. The playlist of 2017-2018 was composed by hits of such artists as LOBODA, Polina Gagarina, Artik & Asti, Alekseev, Ani Lorak, Mot, "Hands Up", Filatov & Karas / Mash, Egor Creed and MOLLY, "Pizza", ESTRADARADA, "Degrees", Burito , Max Barskikh, Emma M, Elka, Sergey Lazarev, Nyusha, Dima Bilan, Potap and Nastya, Denis Klyaver.

At a meeting of the working group on November 14, the issue of strengthening the information security of the Kharkiv region and the development of the telecommunications infrastructure was discussed. The representative of the National Council in the Kharkiv region, Yevgeny Maslov, noted the need to cover the "blank spots" of television and radio broadcasting in the border areas. The participants decided to appeal to the Chairman of the National Council of Ukraine for Television and Radio Broadcasting, co-chairman of the Commission on Ensuring the Stable Functioning of the National Television and Radio Broadcasting System, acting under the Ministry of Information Policy of Ukraine Yuri Artemenko, with the request to include in the agenda of the Commission the issue of building a new telecommunication tower.

(http://proradio.org.ua/news/2017nov.php) * The English edition of the "Ukrainian Radio" daily prepares 10-minute social and political programs about Ukraine and the world Ukrainian Perspective ("Ukrainian perspective"), which will be published at 5:10 am Kyiv time (21:10 in Chicago or 22:10 in Toronto ), as well as the cultural transfer of The Root ("Root") for the third channel of the radio "Culture". About this on his Facebook page, said the general producer of "Ukrainian Radio" Dmitry Khorkin. "Ukrainian Radio" expects that in Ukraine these programs are listened to by foreigners who live on the territory of the country, tourists and those who study English. Despite the fact that the time for listening on the first channel of "Ukrainian Radio" is very early - 05:10, UR advises listening to programs in social networks and podcasts on the site of "Ukrainian Radio". To this end, UR created a special page in Facebook "UA: radio - English edition of the Ukrainian Radio". "These programs will just sound in the evening for those of our compatriots who live and work in America." According to sociological data, out of 950 000 people from the diaspora in the US only 15% use the Ukrainian language, so they will also receive short broadcasts on occasion In addition, now in Ukraine, two-thirds of the population would like to study (or learn) English. Listening to such programs with good voices of English- speaking speakers will help and tighten up the English, and at the same time stay up to date, "said Dmitry Ho rkkin. He added that in the English version of the "Ukrainian Radio" only four journalists work, who prepare daily social, political and cultural programs. Recall that in October 2017, the radio "Culture" began broadcasting on the US radio Ukie Drive. We will add, on November 12 a new sketch show "Lifshak in Ukrainian", which has been on the "UA: First" TV channel since the beginning of October, started on the air of the first channel "Ukrainian Radio". The program can be heard on the air of Ukrainian-language radio stations in several US cities (Source: Portal "Public Broadcasting").

(Vladimir Rudakov / https://vk.com/shortwaveradio) * 1994 ------- July 14, 1994 on the waves of radio air for the first time appeared pirated "Russkoe Radio" (RR). The station broadcasted at 76 and 48 meters (as is known, these are two pirate ranges in the low-frequency spectrum of the KV band). In addition to Russia, the CIS countries and the Baltic states, station signals were received in many countries of Eastern and Central Europe, as well as in England. Subsequently, the station merged with several free broadcasters into the so-called Broadcasting Corporation of the South of Russia. As a result, simultaneous, sometimes synchronous, transmissions at different frequencies of the short-wave ranges were conducted, as well as on VHF. The station practiced thematic programs. According to her reports, the power station was 150-200 watts. The reports on the reception of the RR were confirmed by a verification letter printed immediately to several free stations. It should be noted that at that time there was no trace of the now famous commercial station "Russkoe Radio". And who knows, maybe the reports on the reception of the pirated "Russkoe radio" in the radio amateur bulletins pushed to call the commercial station that name. Nevertheless, the pirated Russkoe Radio stopped broadcasting in the late 90s of the last century, and radio businesspeople successfully work in many regions of Russia on VHF (FM) and on the Internet.

"Our domestic law on the media is absolutely liberal, in relation to the Internet it's absolutely certain that registration of the Internet media is absolutely voluntary. I want to draw your attention to the fact that if you intend to register your radio channel as an Internet media, it will be a network publication, we do not have a definition for Internet broadcasting, "Mr. T. Zharov said. He added that Roskomnadzor will wait from the Academy for radio offers, whether it is necessary to regulate Internet broadcasting and how it can be done. "We are working with you in dialogue, so your opinion is on the first place," Mr. Zharov stressed. kommersant.ru (http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__67563/) * Roskomnadzor will stop issuing paper certificates on registration of the media. -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- --------------- Roskomnadzor from January 1, 2018 will stop issuing paper certificates on registration of the media. This was announced on Tuesday by the head of the department Alexander Zharov in the framework of the International Conference organized by the Russian Academy of Radio. Later, Roskomnadzor explained that "the media will be considered registered from the moment of making an appropriate entry in the Register of Mass Media." In addition, the notions of "re-registration of the media" and "changes in the certificate of registration of the media" disappear. All procedures will be carried out by making changes in the record on registration of the media. The term of providing media registration services from 2018 will be 30 working days from the date of application, now it is 30 calendar days. The amount of the state fee for registration of mass media will depend on the territory of distribution of mass media. If the territory of one subject is chosen, the fee will be 4 thousand rubles if the territory of two or more subjects is chosen or the Russian Federation - 8 thousand rubles. At the same time, "all preferential tariffs for children's publications, editions for disabled people, as well as increasing coefficients for advertising and erotic publications are preserved." These measures come into force as part of the updated version of the law on the media. tass.ru (http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__67559/) * The Council of Federation promised to "block the signal" of the media, who would not want to become foreign agents. ------------------------ If foreign media do not want to comply with the Russian law on foreign agents, they are threatened with "blocking the signal". On this RIA Novosti told an unnamed source in the Federation Council. "The system is already developed. It provides for blocking the signal, "- said the agency's interlocutor, explaining that the speech is both about the on-air media, and about the sites. What does "signal blocking" mean on the Internet is not specified. Earlier in the Russian parliament stated that the media, recognized by foreign agents, in case of non-enforcement of the law threatens only administrative liability in the form of a fine. About the closure of access to sites it was not. RIA Novosti also writes that, as previously reported, at the first stage the law will concern only the projects of Radio Liberty and Voice of America. CNN and Deutsche Welle he will not affect. The State Duma passed a new law on the recognition of the media by foreign agents in one day on November 15. The Federation Council should consider it at a meeting on November 22. Under the new amendments, the Russian Ministry of Justice can recognize the media as a foreign agency any source of information abroad that receives foreign funding. After that, the media will have to label their products with a note that it is a foreign agent. Also it will be necessary to submit financial statements to the Ministry of Justice. Russian law was adopted in response to the registration as a foreign agent in the US state-owned media in Russia RT and Sputnik. Under US law, foreign agents must also provide accountability, but only messages recognized by the Ministry of Justice as political propaganda are required to label. meduza.io (http://onair.ru/main/enews/view_msg/NMID__67554/) * The Russian media are not subject to the law on foreign media - foreign agents, adopted by the State Duma, the press service of the Russian Justice Ministry explained. -------------------------------------------------- ----- "The measure envisaged by the federal law is the reciprocal step in relation to the mass media of those states in which there are special restrictions for carrying out the activities of the Russian media," the report said .-- This measure can not be extended to the Russian mass media, including on the Russian mass media with foreign participation, such media are not subject to the federal law. " According to the information of the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation, the issue of recognizing the mass media as "foreign media", registered in the United States of America, "Voice of America", "Caucasus Realities", "Crimea Realities", "Siberia Realities" "IdeL. Realia", the TV channel "Nowadays", "Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty (RFE / RL)", the Tatar-Bashkir service "Radio Liberty" (Azatliq Radiosi), the project "Factograph".

From superheterodyne to digital technologies (Article) -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- - On the way to the transfer of voice without wires. If radiotelegraph owes its rapid spread around the world to the seething activity of Guglielmo Marconi, then, of course, the voice radio came about thanks to the efforts of Reginald Aubrey Fessenden. In the light of this talented, but original person appeared in the Canadian province of Quebec in 1866. As a teenager, Reginald showed remarkable ability to learn - at the age of 14 he was appointed as a ... mathematics teacher at Bishop College at the same university. However, after finishing his studies at the university, Reginald at the age of 18 leaves his alma mater, never having received a degree. However, the lack of a degree did not confuse Fessenden when he moved to New York in 1886 and began to hire himself to work for Thomas Edison himself. With an incredible aplomb Reginald wrote in the application for employment the following lines: "I do not know anything about electricity, but quickly learn." To this, as later recalled Fessenden, Edison reasonably remarked: "I have enough people who do not understand anything in electricity." And the impudent Canadian did not accept. But Fessenden's perseverance was so strong that he was quickly accepted as assistant test at the Thomas Edison engineering plant, which manufactured equipment for laying underground power grids. On the career ladder Fessenden moved very fast and, finally, began to work under Edison in his research laboratory in West Orange (New Jersey). However, the problems of financial order forced Edison to dismiss in 1890 a significant number of employees, among whom was the surname of the Canadian. But Edison's school was not in vain. Occupying high posts in the late 19th century, Fessenden eagerly pursues research in the field of radio engineering. The idea of creating an "ideal" radio receiver so mastered the inventor that he left in 1900 the chairman of the electrical department of the Western University of Pennsylvania and served in the Bureau of Weather Forecasts. It is here that Fessenden decides in practice to prove the usefulness of using a network of coastal radio stations in transmitting information about the weather, bypassing the usual telegraph lines. From the very beginning, Fessenden set himself the task of conveying a voice. Inventions and discoveries follow one another: a barretter type detector, an electrolytic detector, a heterodyne principle (two signals are combined to produce a third one). In his works Fessenden was ahead of time in many respects, for example, people could use his heterodyne method only when generators appeared on electron tubes. On December 23, 1900, Fessenden, using a high-frequency spark transmitter, made a speech transfer for a distance of 1.6 kilometers. This was, apparently, the first sound broadcast, although some researchers of the history of the radio cast doubt on the reality of this event. However, most likely, Fessenden managed to convey human speech, albeit in a very distorted form, with numerous disturbances. Inform and entertain! After leaving in August 1902 from the Bureau of Weather Forecasts, Fessenden moved to the newly established company NESCO (National Electric Signaling Company). Experimenting with rotor-spark transmitters, the inventor comes to the conviction - to transmit sound of good quality, an electric alternator (alternator) is needed, and very powerful, capable of operating at a frequency of tens of kilohertz. At that time, such generators did not exist, and many regarded the idea of Fessenden as "delusional." However, as early as 1906 Swede Ernst Frederik Werner Alexanderson provided a generator with a frequency of 50 kHz to the Canadian. In the evening of December 24, 1906, Fessenden, using the Alexanderson generator, for the first time in the world broadcast a radio program. The sailors of the ships of the American Navy were able to hear their own ears with their own ears (played a phonograph, and also Fessenden himself on a violin - an excerpt from "O, Holy Night"), a verse of the song "Veneration and Humility" for the same violin and text from the Bible ("Praise God on heaven and people of goodwill on earth "). It is no exaggeration to say that Reginald Fessenden opened the door to the world of modern radio, without which the daily life of a man of the 20th and 21st centuries is inconceivable. However, Fessenden was not a radio broadcaster in the literal sense of the word. The session of sound transmission with the help of electromagnetic waves was for him just a successful experiment, confirming his rightness as a researcher. The first to start a permanent radio broadcast was Charles Gerrold. In 1909, he opened the radio station San Jose Calling; today she is broadcasting from San Francisco under the name KCBS. Herrod introduced the term "broadcast". As the son of a farmer, he knew that in agriculture the term "broadcast" refers to the spreading of seeds in different directions. Also, the station of Gerold - it covered a wide audience. To receive the radio signal in all directions, Gerold invented and installed an "omnidirectional" antenna. To inform and entertain radio listeners in the modern sense of the word, radio stations began, approximately, since 1915. In 1916, the regular broadcasting of the American radio station 9XM (now called the WHA) starts, in 1920 entertainment broadcasts were broadcast in Argentina, and on August 20, 1920, the 8MK (then WBL, now WWJ) radio station in Detroit was opened and began broadcasting. It should be noted that many of the first radio stations exist to this day. Superheterodyne and FM radio. In 1918, American Edwin Howard Armstrong (Edwin Howard Armstrong) demonstrated superheterodyne, which allowed to improve the sensitivity and selectivity of radio receivers in a wide range of frequencies. The principle of superheterodyne reception is that the received oscillations are frequency-converted into an intermediate frequency, in which the main signal amplification takes place. The fixation of the intermediate frequency allows the use of a significant number of circuits in the IF amplifier for selectivity. Superheterodyne reception and to this day is the main principle in the creation of not only radios, but also radars and televisions. In 1933, the same Armstrong patented FM radio, using frequency modulation of radio waves, which makes it possible to reduce the influence of radio interference from atmospheric electricity and operating electrical equipment. The FM band was used for high-quality audio transmission. In 1934, Armstrong conducted a demonstration of FM-radio, which showed the complete superiority of the first in comparison with AM-radio, using amplitude modulation. At the end of World War II, he created FM-radar on undamped oscillations, which allowed him to send and receive a signal for a distance to the moon and back. Thus, Armstrong showed that FM waves are able to penetrate the ionosphere, which AM waves could not. This discovery later allowed to establish radio communication in space. Despite the truly huge contribution to the development of the radio industry, the fate of Armstrong was, in the end, sad. And the capitalist system, under which patent wars can be murderous not on paper, has ruined the inventor. Suffice it to recall how in 1943 the Supreme Court of the United States restored the patent of Nikola Tesla under number 645576, thereby recognizing the primacy over the Serbs in the discovery of radio. However, Tesla himself was already dead, but the court decision allowed him not to pay out Marconi's deductions, which had the intention of recovering them from the US government for using her patents during the First World War. As for Armstrong, the large companies of the US radio industry of the time (especially RCA) in every possible way prevented the inventor from promoting FM radio, as it destroyed their monopoly in the field of AM radio. The RCA leadership has gone so far as to start violating Armstrong's copyrights, incidentally "generously" offering that one million dollars for a non-exclusive license. In 1948, Armstrong filed a lawsuit against the RCA. The case was dealt with for six years, during which Armstrong spent huge sums on lawyers. The highest nervous tension was made known in 1954 - Armstrong offended his beloved wife, with whom she lived for many years, and she left, leaving her husband to meet Christmas and New Year alone. This was the last straw. January 31, wearing a hat and coat, he threw himself out of the window of his New York apartment, located on the 13th floor ... The receiver is in your pocket. In the same year, when Edwin Armstrong started a lawsuit with RCA, the world learned about the appearance of the transistor. This happened on June 30, 1948. And the first samples of transistors were available a little earlier - in the American company Bell Labs, at the very end of 1947, John Bardeen and Walter Houser Brattain invented a point-to-point transistor; in early 1948, William Shockley (William Bradford Shockley) created a planar transistor. The appearance of transistors radically changed not only radio engineering. The entire electronic industry has taken the path of miniaturization. In 1953 the first transistors under the direction of AV Krasilov were developed in the USSR. In 1955, the Japanese company Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo released a transistor radio receiver TR-55. To enter the US market, the name of the company was replaced by Sony, and in 1957 a Sony TR-63 pocket radio appeared in the US. Thus began the era of portable radios. The first radio receivers on transistors in the USSR (under the name "Spidola") began to be produced since 1960, at the Riga plant VEF. The first model was named "Spidola PMP-60", i.e. "Semiconductor small-sized receiver of the 1960 release". It was assembled on ten transistors and received radio transmissions in the bands of LW, MW and (with the help of a telescopic retractable antenna) the SW subbands. A curious fact: on January 1, 1962, the registration of radio receivers and televisions was canceled in the USSR, as was the charging of subscriber fees for these devices. It is a little about a miscellaneous. In 1956, the English company Multitone for the first time in the world deployed a personal radio calling system (otherwise - a paging system). On the territory of one of the London hospitals, each doctor could receive a call signal. After receiving the message, the doctor called from the nearest phone to find out the reason for the call. A small receiver was called a "pager" (from the English "page" - "boy servant"). Pagers were popular until mobile phones became a mass phenomenon in the 21st century. However, paging communication is in demand even today, although its use has been greatly reduced. Television, another companion of human life, also owes its appearance to radio waves. We can not, of course, not mention the radio amateurs, whose army inexorably grew since the 1920s. Radio amateurs united in circles; for them special magazines were issued, where radio circuits were published. The movement of radio amateurs in the USSR was especially massive. It is no accident that academician SI Vavilov, president of the USSR Academy of Sciences since 1945, noted this fact: "In no field of human knowledge has there been such a mass social and technical initiative that encompasses people of various ages and professions, as in radio engineering. Radio amateurism is a powerful movement that has led to the participation in radio experiments of thousands of enthusiasts ... " Digital broadcasting The development of digital technologies has given a new twist in the development of radio. Since the beginning of the 80s of the XX century in Europe, work began on the creation of digital broadcasting (DAB - digital audio broadcasting). In 1987, European companies organized a consortium Eureka-147 to transfer digital broadcasting to practical rails. In 1992 for DAB, the L and S bands were singled out. The first DAB receiver, suitable for domestic use, was presented at the 1995 Berlin exhibition. Active broadcasting and use of digital technologies in a number of European countries (in particular, Great Britain and Germany) began in the mid-1990s. However, even after almost 15 years, digital broadcasting could not displace the analog radio. And this despite a number of advantages, which include transmission along with sound images, texts and other data, high noise immunity, the possibility of reducing the transmitter power by dozens of times, etc. Epilogue. Radio for many years has become the closest friend of man, it saved him from despondency, transmitted the most important news, taught, attached to the world art. Radio could not write off either TV or computer technologies, although in the early 1980s it seemed to many that the arrival of new technologies and services would finally destroy the radio. But nothing terrible for the radio did not happen, it survived the video of the 80's and nowadays it competes with the Internet, where today you can not only read the latest news, but also listen to your favorite songs in real time. But the radio is still full of sounds ... Author: Ivan Vasiliev (https://vk.com/club59176345) 73!
