Radio Mikhailovka (106.5 MHz) and Kletskaya (107.0 MHz) can now listen to Radio Russii in the FM band. New frequencies provide higher quality of sounding of radio programs and increase coverage of broadcasting. Today receivers with VHF band are practically not released, almost all the broadcasts are conducted in the FM-band. Transmitters with a power of 4 kW cover the signal of more than 190 thousand residents of the Mikhailovsky district and more than 170 thousand inhabitants of the Kletsk district. "Radio of Russii" is 20 hours of daily broadcasting from 5:00 to 01:00 Moscow time.

In the WRTH directory, the station name is mentioned as Emmanuel radio, but the station declares itself only as "Svetloe Radio". In general, the SR reported that it transmits on 7 frequencies and through a satellite. The information showed that they use 7 frequencies between 67.28 and 70.37 MHz in different cities of Ukraine. (Rumen Pankov, Sofia, Bulgaria). TURKMENISTAN ============== On the 8th of July, with a weak signal on the LW 279 kHz, I received after 20 local radio. (Rumen Pankov, Sofia, Bulgaria). MOLDOVA / FRANCE =================== About the station Denge Welat, probably translated Voice of the Fatherland (?): Programs in Turkish go Monday to Saturday from 05.00 to 05.45 at a frequency of 11530 kHz, and from July 1 and from 04.00 to 04.57 also in Turkish language. Maybe in Turkish there are other hours of broadcasting during the day. Everywhere it is reported that the entire program is only in Kurdish (although in fact in different Kurdish languages / dialects) language. (Rumen Pankov, Sofia, Bulgaria). Monitoring ========== FM and VHF DX. In May, June and July, I often took stations from Belarus, Israel, occasionally from Russia, Iraq, Jordan, Spain. The unidentified station was at 92.5 MHz. 24th of June at 09.30. The broadcasting language was broadcasted either by the Georgian or the Armenian station on the air of Star FM Radio. Very often I took a sound (Selena receiver B216 at 65.75 MHz, and sometimes the image on the ORTT channel 2 ORT television 1 - apparently there are still analog transmissions (Rumen Pankov, Sofia, Bulgaria). "RUS-DX PLUS" PARTNER CHANNELS AND INTERNET ============== BCLNES Il radioascolto in Italia 8 July 2018 ----------------------------- Russia might have digital radio in a couple of years Digital radio broadcasting in Russia may begin in the next two to four years, according to a Radio 1 correspondent who spoke to the vice-president of the Russian Academy of Radio, Yuri Kostin. "It can happen within two years, it can happen in four years - it all depends on the development of technology. The introduction of the DRM + standard is still in the plans. It is necessary to develop regulatory acts that will allow stations to obtain broadcasting rights. I think that those stations that already broadcast in the FM-band will get the right to broadcast in the standard DRM +. New players will not go there," Kostin said. Alexander Zharov, the head of Roskomnadzor confirmed on the sidelines of the conference "The Future of Regional Radio" in Sochi that the technical possibility of switching to digital broadcasting standards in Russia exists. "At present, the State Commission for Radio Frequencies has opened all the doors. We have registered the standard DRM + and DAB. But the choice should be for the industry," he told a Radio 1 correspondent. The seventh edition of the conference took place on May 31 and June 1 with the support of the Federal Agency for Press and Mass Communications. The forum brought together more than 200 managers and key specialists from Russia's leading federal, regional and local radio stations. Opening the conference, the president of the Russian Academy of Radio, Andrei Romanchenko also called DRM + the most promising standard for the use in Russia. According to experts, the use of the DAB standard is also possible, but it meets the requirements of the infrastructure and market demands to a lesser degree. The DAB system allows to launch a broadband signal (1536 kHz) on one frequency, capable of broadcasting more than 20 sound programs. One such signal is called a "multiplex". The DRM + signal is 16 times narrower, its width is only 96 kHz. Narrowband DRM + signal allows transferring up to three stereo programs of audio broadcasting with better FM quality and a separate data transmission channel. According to the RAR, there are 3405 radio stations broadcasting in Russia now - 117 stations less than a year ago. Earlier in April, Minister of Communications and Mass Communications of the Russian Federation, Nikolai Nikiforov, held a meeting with the State Commission for Radio Frequencies (GKRC) during which the possibility of deploying DAB+ was discussed, where appropriate and dependent on availability of spectrum. Later that month, AsiaRadioToday's Steve Ahern also attended the four-day Media Together Festival, which discussed a range of current trends in Russian radio, led by big name local identities and several international speakers.

Key points: 13 former members were scheduled to be hanged Sarin subway attack in 1995 killed 13, thousands injured At its peak cult had 10,000 members Chizuo Matsumoto, who went by the name Shoko Asahara, was the first of 13 cult members scheduled to be hanged for the attacks. The Aum Shinrikyo, or Aum Supreme Truth cult, which mixed Buddhist and Hindu meditation with apocalyptic teachings, staged a series of crimes including simultaneous sarin gas attacks on Tokyo subway trains during peak hour in March 1995. Sarin, a nerve gas, was originally developed by the Nazi regime in Germany. The attacks left 13 dead and injured more than 6,000. Passengers affected by sarin nerve gas in the central Tokyo subway trains are carried into St. Luke's International Hospital.

(AP: Chiaki Tsukumo, File) [captions] A Japanese government spokesman confirmed the execution. Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said that authorities are taking precautionary measures in case of any retaliation by his followers. Relatives of victims of the cult have said they approve of the execution. Kiyoe Iwata, whose daughter was killed in the subway attack, told Japanese broadcaster NHK that his death gave her piece of mind. Iwata said she had always wondered why it had to be her daughter, and added she would visit her daughter's grave to let her know. Minoru Kariya told NHK that he has been wondering when the execution would happen and called it appropriate. His father is believed to have been tortured to death by the cult in 1995.

(Kyodo News via AP, File) [captions] Umbrellas and plastic bags used to deliver deadly attack The images of bodies, many in business suits, sprawled across platforms stunned Japan and shattered its myth of public safety. Plastic bags filled with the liquid form of the poison had been taken on board crowded commuter trains by cult members during the Tokyo morning rush hour. The bags were pierced with the tips of umbrellas and the deadly gas emerged. The cult also used sarin in 1994, releasing the gas in the central Japanese city of Matsumoto on a summer night in an attempt to kill three judges set to rule on the cult. The attack, which failed, used a refrigerator truck to release the gas and a wind dispersed it in a residential neighbourhood, killing eight and injuring hundreds. Nerve agents explained Nerve agents have been used in chemical warfare since WWII and have been linked to a number of high-profile assassinations. Here's how they can destroy the body within minutes. Australian connection There was an Australian link to the Aum Shinrikyo cult. Twenty-five years ago the cult moved to a far flung cattle station near Leonora in Western Australia's Goldfields region. They had prepared for the attack at Banjawarn station, a remote sheep station it owned. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-02-10/doomsday-cult-aum-shinrikyo-sarin-gas-tests-at-banjawarn-wa/9401216 It was not until after the attacks in Tokyo that investigations into the group's activities led authorities to the West Australian outback. Federal and state police raided the property, finding it well and truly abandoned, however they uncovered evidence it had been used for a variety of scientific experiments, including the manufacture and testing of sarin. They found traces of the nerve agent in the carcasses of 24 sheep in a remote part of the property and in the surrounding soil. Media player: "Space" to play, "M" to mute, "left" and "right" to seek.

(ABC News) 20 years of legal action Asahara, 63, a pudgy, partially blind yoga instructor, was sentenced to hang in 2004 on 13 charges, including the subway gas attacks and a series of other crimes that killed more than a dozen more people. He pleaded not guilty and never testified, but muttered and made incoherent remarks in court during the eight years of his trial. The sentence was upheld by the Supreme Court in 2006. More than 20 years of trials involving Aum members, http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-09-08/aum-shinrikyo-appeal-dismissed-by-high-court/7827254 including Asahara, came to an end in January 2018, when the life sentence of Katsuya Takahashi for his part in the 1995 subway sarin gas attack was upheld by the Supreme Court. Thirteen cult members including Asahara have been on death row. Doomsday cult once had 10,000 followers Asahara, who founded Aum in 1987, said the United States would attack Japan and turn it into a nuclear wasteland. He also said he had travelled forward in time to 2006 and talked to people then about what World War III had been like. At its peak, the cult had at least 10,000 members in Japan and overseas, including graduates of some of Japan's most elite universities. A number lived at a huge commune-like complex Asahara set up at the foot of Mount Fuji, where the group studied his teachings and practiced bizarre rituals but also built an arsenal of weapons - including sarin. The 1995 Tokyo subway sarin attack killed 13 people and injured thousands Photo: The Tokyo subway attack was just one of a number of crimes committed by cult members. (News Video) After the arrest of 190 of the cult's leaders in the investigation following the sarin attacks, it was discovered the group had been renamed Aleph and there were about 1500 followers remaining. They have been observed decorating photos of Asahara with floral wreaths and celebrating his birthday since his arrest. They have also been seen, according to reports in the Japanese media, walking around the periphery of the Tokyo prison, where Asahara was before his execution. This was considered to be part of their spiritual training. Authorities have in the past voiced concern that once Asahara was put to death, his followers who would deify him and possibly engage in other types of malicious mischief.

When they were broadcasting in 1992, I was 12 years old and had just started my SWLing hobby and I will always remember the weirdness of the broadcasts, especially when I realised they were leasing time off Radio Moscow. I must have tuned in about halfway through a broadcast when I first heard Radio Aum Shinrikyo Yes, to very young ears, it initially didn't sound much different to Dr Gene Scott's lectures. But I do remember there was something a bit wacky about what he was saying. Little did any of us know that he was to be responsible for organising the attacks on the Tokyo Subway a few years later. -- Regards, (BRIAN POWELL VK2FBAJ, Sydney, Australia, WOR iog via DXLD) Just looked up a listing in an old logbook: 27 July 1992, 2030 UT, 17695 kHz with an S9+30dB signal.

In the late 1980's Aum Shinrikyo arrived in Russia and the Ukraine. The sect`s speeches were translated and broadcast in a number of languages over the Voice of Russia`s SW transmitters. The money received helped subsidise the foreign service. In 1992 the Russian Justice Ministry registered the organisation. According to the Russian General Prosecutors office, there were more than 30,000 salesmen in Aum-Shinrikyo. They laid criminal information against the sect in March 1995 and broadcasts via Russian transmitters were promptly terminated (RNW MN NL, WDXC-UK 'Contact' magazine Apr 1, 2004) The former leader of a Japanese doomsday cult has been judged mentally fit to continue his appeal of a death sentence for masterminding a deadly nerve gas attack on Tokyo's subway. Shoko Asahara who founded and led the Aum Shinrikyo cult was sentenced to death by hanging in 2004 after being found guilty of being responsible for the sarin gas attack, which killed 12 people and made thousands of others sick in 1995. On March 20, 1995, five cult members pierced bags of sarin, a nerve gas developed by the Nazis, on separate trains as they converged in central Tokyo's national government district. The cult claimed it was a pre-emptive strike against police planning raids on the group. Asahara was convicted of killing 27 people in total, including former members of the cult, an anti-cult lawyer and his family. A number of other former cult members have received death sentences for participating in the attack (ODXA Listening In via dxld; WDXC-UK 'Contact' magazine April 2006) December 2003 archive: Recommending a new book on defeating cult terrorism in Japan, which may be of interest to readers always in search of unique and new literature especially as some of the cult's activities were conducted in Australia. (Dec 21, 2003) AUM SHINRIKYO - JAPAN'S UNHOLY SECT I am the author of a book on the Japanese cult, Aum Shrinrikyo [sic] which released sarin nerve gas into a Tokyo subway system in 1995 killing and injuring thousands. It was considered an act of terrorism from a cult whose belief was the destruction of mankind. The deadly cult, Aum Shinrikyo, is still on the United States list of terrorists and below is a brief synopsis of this book "Aum Shinrikyo - Japan's Unholy Sect" and after the Sept 11th incident, the issue of terrorism has become a topic of great concern to everyone. It is a chilling story of terror, murder and atrocities committed in the name of twisted religious beliefs, the forerunner of Sept 11th, long before terrorism became the business of everyone committed to live in peace and safety. The cult extended their activities to Australia when Shoko Asahara, the founder, purchased a farm in Australia to test sarin on animals. A little about this book: On the 26th of March 1995, sarin gas was released in a Tokyo subway station crammed with morning rush hour commuters and all hell broke loose. In the aftermath of anguish, death, painful injuries and broken lives, the deadly action was traced back to a cult called Aum Shinrikyo. What lay behind this ferocious lashing the cult had given to the orderly, uncluttered society Japan was so proud of? What dark sinister secrets lay behind the walls of the Aum Shinrikyo compound in Kamikuishiki? Tsutsumi Sakamoto, a Yokohama lawyer took up the challenge of finding answers to these questions and one cold, gray November morning in 1995, the young attorney, his wife and ten month old son disappeared without a trace. This is the chilling story of how a young lawyer sacrificed his life and that of his poignantly young family to stem the reign of terror of the cult's guru, Shoko Asahara. He spoke out from his lonely hillside grave and was heard at last after six long years. He had died to right a social wrong; the rest was up to the living.

[Ending. The beginning of last issue.] HISTORY OF THE LEGENDARY RADIOTEKHNIKA FACTORY. In 1945, the conveyor gets first the receiver "Riga T-689", and then "Riga T-755". T-755 was developed with an emphasis on reducing the cost of production, the model is placed in a metal casing. Although there is an earlier version - in a wooden case, but this can only be found in collectors. In subsequent years, the demand for the plant's products sharply increases, and there is a need for expansion. New workshops are being built: installation, galvanic, mechanical repair, etc. Already by 1950, Radio Engineering became an example of Stakhanov's work, traditional for the Soviet Union. A year later, the plant was given the name of the electrical engineer and inventor A.S. Popov. But for the director of the plant Alexander Apsitis bad times come: first, he is demoted because of "failure to fulfill the plan," and then arrested. Four months later, he leaves the prison, but already broken, the plant Apsitis no longer returns. In 1938 the production of "Abrama Leibovica foto radio centrale" was moved to the place behind the Dvina (the so-called left bank of the Daugava river, where one third of the city is located). Near the shore there is a place where, for many years, the first workshops of the "RRR" factory were located on Mukusalas street, 41 (in the Soviet times this street was called Radiotehnikas iela - Radio engineering street). Not much ahead of the events, you can notice that this house on the banks of the Daugava is still standing. The building was Leibovitz rented, before that there was a branch of Zeiss, which manufactures optics. Open joint-stock company "A. Apsitis & F. Zhukovskis" was founded in 1934. Initially, the workshops and the store were in Old Riga, but in 1938 - in the newly built two-storey building behind the Dvina, on Darza Street (Sadovaya), house 16. In the course of its existence, this firm created about 20 radio models. In the last quarter of 1945, the factory restored the production of radio equipment. The plant became the "Radio Engineering" factory of the Ministry of Local Industry of the Latvian SSR. They produced reproducers, subscriber transformers, amplifiers. It was mastered the production of equipment for broadcasting radio programs over telephone lines. In the autumn of 1945, the first experimental batch of radio receivers "Riga T-689" was sent to the stores, and their mass production began the following year. In connection with the demand for products of the plant, the need to expand the area of ??production. In the construction work used German prisoners of war. In 1947, a new building was constructed for the experimental and mechanical repair shops. A year later, a galvanic shop was built, and in 1951 - a shop for radio boxes (so always at this factory called the case of receivers). Two years later the assembly workshop was built. In 1949, the "Riga B-912" battery receiver destined for rural areas was started to be produced. But the radio giant continues to work without its founders. In the early fifties there are receivers of "Riga-6" and "Riga-10". The sixth model weighed 12 kg, had six lamps, consumed 55 watts from the network. On it you could play records from an external player. The tenth model (the number ten here also means the number of lamps) weighed 24 kilograms, consumed no more than 85 watts from the network and (like Riga-6) it received broadcasts in the bands KV, SV and DV. And to ensure good sound in this model, a broadband loudspeaker was used. According to Inars Klavins, who worked at Radio Engineering for 33 years, the plant's equipment was in demand not only in the USSR - it was bought in Germany, France, Britain and other Western countries. Consumers liked the simplicity and reliability of the Riga radio receivers. Later, one of the first small-size serial transistor radio receiver Gauja appeared in the Soviets, it was released in two variations - with charging for the batteries and without it (then it worked on the battery of the "krona"). By the way, the popular "Gauja" can be seen in Soviet films: "Three plus two", "Beware of the car" and others. In the beginning of the sixties the plant produces car receivers "???- 60" and "???-60-2", which were mounted on the "Seagulls" and one hundred eleventh ZILs. The first model had even a remote control, the receivers had both a manual search for the wave, and an automatic tuning system for the station. Separately note the stereo radar "Simfonija 2" - this is an upgraded version of the first "Symphony". She had two options: in one the player was located next to the receiver, in the other - under it, each column weighed 16 kg each. Assembled on seventeen transistors and eight diodes portable "Neptune" was developed for the 60th anniversary of October. By the way, on "Radio Engineering" developed and VCRs. For example, on "Malachite" they reproduced the record of the docking of the Soyuz-Apollo spacecraft. The decade of success and withering of the Eighties for "Radio Engineering" became "golden" - the pace of production of radio equipment is growing, the plant produces about 35% of all Soviet audio equipment. There are cassette tape recorders ML-6201 with a tuner, two acoustic systems, a tape recorder and an ULF. At this time, the association "Radio Engineering" also includes CB "Orbita" and the plant of microelectronics "Emir". The cassette player "Duets PM-8401" appears, to which you can connect two pairs of headphones at once. In a year the enterprise makes one million radio receivers, amplifiers and tape recorders and more than one million acoustic systems. This dizzying success continued until the collapse of the USSR. Political events in the world, the acquisition of Latvia's independence and economic reforms were accompanied by a mass market entry of Chinese cheap consumer goods on the one hand and products of famous brands, first of all, Japanese brands, on the other. "Radio engineering" was disbanded into several autonomous enterprises, because of which the giant of the radio industry came to an even greater decline. Unable to withstand competition with imported models, the plant withdraws part of the production. At the same time, prices for parts manufactured in the countries of the former Soviet Union are rising, the prices for the plant's products have to be raised, but they are no longer bought up, as it is morally obsolete compared to new products from abroad. The plant can not afford to develop new models, as its design bureau does not receive sufficient funding. A typical situation for many factories in the 90s begins: debts on wages grow, and profits are practically nonexistent. Most of the enterprises that emerged after the disbandment of Radio Engineering, almost immediately "died," including KB Orbita. Despite futile attempts to adapt to the new market, in 1993 the Riga Radio Factory, the survivor of the disintegration of Radio Engineering, was divided into two parts by the State Property Fund. One was subsequently declared bankrupt. The second part turned into "Radiotehnika RRR", which in 1998 at the auction was bought by businessmen Eduard and Yury Maleev. From 1954 to 1961, the lines of conveyors for radio receivers and radios "Daugava", "Festivals", "Sakta", "Dzintars", "Gauja" were created at the workshops. In 1961 the plant produced the Sakta radar, the details of which were mounted on printed circuit boards. This practice was here for the first time in the whole USSR. The plant was the first in the Union to develop and began to produce a stereo radio "Simfonija 2" (1967). Here it is necessary to note that the first "Symphony", released three years before the second, is not completely stereophonic, - the receiver does not have a stereo decoder. In 1964 the Simfonija radar was slightly upgraded, releasing Simfonija-2, which already has a full stereo. To the 60th anniversary of the Great October Revolution the factory team prepared a gift - a portable transistor receiver of the first class "Neptune", which was equipped with long, short and VHF bands. Nevertheless, mass production, as well as several other products, did not survive this device for a number of reasons. In the seventies, most of the production was moved to a new complex in Imanta. Before the collapse of the USSR, several dozen different receivers, radios and other models of equipment for domestic market and for export were produced and produced in large quantities. The external finish and quality of them has always been at the highest level. The most successful period for the plant was in the late eighties, when the production association "Radiotehnika" employed about 16,000 people. In the association as the main enterprise was a plant them. A. Popova, design bureau "Orbita", Riga electromechanical plant "REMR" Kandava radio factory, plant of micro-electronics "Emir". Over the years, Radiotehnika has produced about 35% of all Soviet audio equipment. Within a year, about a million different units of radio equipment and about 1.3 million acoustic systems came off the assembly lines. Latvia in these years by the number of production receivers per capita outstripped even Japan. What is happening now with "Radiotehnika RRR" The new director of the plant, Eduard Maleev, said that for a long time the enterprise was not in the best shape. The reason is banal: there are orders, the renewed speakers want to buy in the West and even in the Emirates, but banks do not give money for production. In addition, buyers want to get a "new" sound, improved models and innovations, but for this you need to invest in patents and research. On the site of the plant in the section "today" the situation is described more optimistically: "VEF Radiotehnika RRR" has the latest equipment, one of the largest anechoic cameras in Europe and provides excellent opportunities for the development and production of the newest acoustics. " Judging by the statistics of the Latvian State Revenue Service, now the profile business of Radiotehnika RRR is not developing particularly successfully. To date, the main activity of the company is renting and managing its own or rented real estate (most of the factory buildings are converted into retail space). And on October 1 in the press there were news that the administrative building of the plant would be dismantled within the next five months. In 2015, the building and adjacent areas were sold to a company managing a network of construction stores - what will be built in its place after the dismantling, is not yet specified. But something else lives In 2011, the company World Audio Distribution, a member of the group of companies "Audiomania", launched its own production of full- cycle acoustics in Riga - from the manufacture of cases to finished products under the brand Arslab. Earlier Arslab columns were produced in China. The choice to Riga fell, among other things, because of the specialists living there who had previously worked at the Radiotehnika plant. Now at the head of production is Victor Lagarpov, who used to be the chief engineer at Radio Engineering. Thanks to the experience gained at the legendary factory, Victor knows everything about acoustics. Over the six years of operation of the enterprise, the plant's capabilities have expanded considerably - additional German machines have been acquired, new personnel have been recruited. In 2017, the number of workers employed directly in production reached fifteen people. In addition to assembling acoustics and producing the necessary electronic components, the factory also manufactures cases for speakers (unlike many manufacturers of audio systems that buy ready- made from third-party companies). The enterprise also produces a large number of casings for other manufacturers from Germany, France, Italy and other countries. In 2014, World Audio Distribution acquired a controlling stake in Penaudio, whose products are now also produced at this plant. As the founder of Penaudio Sami Penttila himself says, continuing to lead the company, the quality of finished products has increased. And the production capacity is now enough to meet the demand for this acoustics all over the world. In addition to the "traditional" home audio systems (under the brands Arslab, Old School and Penaudio), the plant in 2016 began to produce equipment for home cinemas ICE. This is another own brand of "Audiomania". This acoustics is also developed by the company F-Lab under the guidance of the famous engineer Yuri Fomin. Acoustics ICE, Old School and Penaudio, assembled at the plant in Riga, is sold not only in Latvia and Russia, it is in great demand all over the world, including China, Taiwan, Japan, USA, Mexico and Europe. The number of products produced in 2017 under the brands of "Audioomania", according to our forecasts, will approach a thousand, and this is almost a twofold increase in comparison with 2016. https://vk.com/radioreceiver (via Rus-DX 8 July via DXLD) ** RUSSIA.

U.S. ACCUSES RUSSIA OF STIFLING PRESS FREEDOM AFTER COURT FINES WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. State Department accused Moscow of stifling press freedom and media independence on Friday after a Russian court fined the U.S. government-sponsored Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty for violating Russia's "foreign agent" law. RFE/RL said the court found it guilty on Thursday July 5th of not complying fully with Moscow's foreign agent law and fined it 100,000 rubles ($1,585), which the broadcaster described as the latest step in a campaign against its operations. "The Russian government continues to stifle press freedom and media independence," State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert said in a statement. "We condemn the selective targeting of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty and Voice of America under Russia's law on 'foreign agent' media outlets." Russia designated RFE/RL and Voice of America as foreign agents in December. The decision required the outlets to include in any information they publish or broadcast to Russian audiences a statement mentioning their status as foreign agents. The Russian designation was seen as retaliation for what Moscow said was unacceptable U.S. pressure on Russian media in the United States. U.S. intelligence officials have accused the Kremlin of using Russian media it finances to influence U.S. voters. Washington last year forced Russian state broadcaster RT to register its U.S.-based affiliate as a foreign agent under U.S. law. Nauert said the Russian State Duma had approved additional legislation that could enable the government to extend the foreign agent designation to individual journalists in addition to media outlets. "The United States again calls on the Russian government to uphold its commitments ... to respect the exercise of fundamental freedoms, including freedom of expression, in Russia," Nauert said.

The fact is that the terms of our arrangements for trial broadcasting have already passed, but no further plans for our joint work, the leadership of the "All-India Radio" has not been voiced. Apparently the activity of our audience was below what our colleagues in Delhi had expected, "Alekseev said.

Olgino. Broadcasting of the radio station has been conducted for almost 8 years since November 2006. (https://vk.com/club59176345) 12 / July ----------- 12.07.1996 - this day was the last day of broadcasting in St. Petersburg of the youth music radio station "Polis" at a frequency of 73.1 MHz. For the first time the signal "Radio Polis" appeared on the average wave frequency of 1053 kHz in 1992 (in addition, if we are not mistaken, at the initial stages the frequency of 1260 kHz was also used). But perhaps the most unusual period in the history of Polis was when the radio station rented from our branch a 200 kW short-wave transmitter "Sneg-MU" at Radiocenter No. 11 in Krasnoye Boru for work through an antenna of anti-aircraft radiation in the range of 49 meters (6045 kHz) ) in the volume of 12 hours per day (07: 00-19: 00 MSK), thanks to which the coverage of the territory with a radius of several hundred kilometers was provided ... (https://vk.com/club59176345) HISTORY OF DX AND RADIO ======================= 1962 year. ------------- Rubric "BY WAVES OF OUR MEMORY". On air Radio station "Yunost". The radio station "Yunost " first appeared in Moscow on October 16, 1962. Every day at five o'clock in the evening the radio station "Yunost", the song of Pakhmutova-Dobronravova, "The Song of Troubled Youth", was heard on the "first button" of the radio. And something was starting that was completely different from the usual radiofiction. The history of Radio Yunost began on October 16, 1962. The first authors of the radio station programs were the famous bard Yuri Vizbor, Ada Yakusheva, journalists Maxim Kusurgashev, Alla Slonimirova and other merry and young people. "Youth" was the first who started working on the air. Technically, it was done this way: music and other recordings were issued directly from the studio bass recorders. Therefore, from time to time, overlapping occurred: then the interview with the production frontier will go backwards, then the song will stop in the most unexpected place. Music on the air sounded not the most formal, and the further - the more. In order to get something worthwhile, the music editors of the radio station regularly went "on the hunt" for the flea market, from which they brought the company records, which soon sounded on the air. In a month, "Yunost" on average sounded 95 hours. This is the hit "Field post of" Yunost "," Program for builders of the Baikal-Amur Mainline ", Sunday" Hello, comrade! ". There were also the "Heirs of October", "The Book of Honor of the Central Committee of the Komsomol", "How many forces does the Kolos have?", "The Banner of Shock", "The Work Shift", "The Tselina, Next to the Home Village", "Our Student Worker" , "Your free time", "In the world of beauty", "Creativity of the young", "Your interlocutor", "Youth about classical art", "Variety review", "The circle of your reading." We read confessionary letters from listeners, gave interviews with living people, not officials, and, of course, listened to good music. Even the program "Shoots the movie" looked on the air quite clearly. It was a time of romantics. A little earlier or later - and "Youth" could hardly have predicted longevity. Her life began just in time, collecting the sixties on both sides of the air. (https://vk.com/club59176345) 1988 year. ------------ Bulletin "Exotic DX News", No. 3 (21) 1988. The monthly bulletin of the DX-Circle Leningrad, USSR. Edited by Mikhail P.Timofeyev. Rubric is led by Valery Ostroverch (Karaganda). As a rule, readers do not interview the editor, but in the era of perestroika and glasnost there should not be taboo topics. Therefore, on behalf of the readers, I dare to ask Mikhail Timofeev a few questions. VO: I'll start with an unusual question - your way to DX? MT: Like many, in my opinion, he began to "twist the knobs" for another 6-7 years on the old "Record", since 1976 he regularly listened to the Swedish DX-program, wrote down once the address of Valentin Ershov and through him went to Grigory Grigoriev. The last one was my "godfather" in DX. VO: I hope you learned arithmetic at school and you can easily tell how many stations you accepted and how many of them have been confirmed? MT: Oh, an impossible task for me! I have never dealt with such an account, I can say only something specific in the tropical ranges, for 90 meters, for example, I heard signals from 79 stations, of which no one has been confirmed .... For me, the main thing is the very fact of receiving a particular station, QSL - a matter, in my opinion, secondary, optional. Especially when there is no 100% guarantee of passing the mail. If I'm not mistaken, I have all 18 or 19 countries confirmed on all ranges. VO: Did you randomly choose the direction of the antenna? MT: It's purely by chance that, by the way, plays a big role and does not play. The large rhombic antennas, in my opinion, are most effective at long-distance reception and are significantly superior in parameters to conventional "long wire" types in combination with good receivers, they can help achieve excellent results. VO: An abstract question - how do you feel about the price increase? MT: Without going into details: extremely negative ... VO: Why did you decide to publish "EDXN"? MT: I wanted to create my own newsletter with interesting information and, most importantly, my face. I think that I could not solve this task even on a satisfactory level and only partly through my own fault ... VO: What are your plans for the future? MT: First of all, keep the membership in DSWCI, which is very difficult (coupons are needed, about 40 pieces). I want to try to get a good Japanese receiver (for example Kenwood, Icom) for a more serious DX. There is a great desire to get busy with midwave reception (North America, Oceania) - but here again everything rests on the lack of a good Rx. VO: The simplest question is how many DXers in the USSR? MT: I can only spread my hands and forward the question to Sergei Fedosov. I will only say that the catastrophically small number of Soviet DXers are seriously engaged in "live" air - this is our big disadvantage. Almost everyone has the opportunity to get at least some connected equipment and almost no one uses it. I would like to recall in this connection V.Tepilov is an example worthy of imitation. I can also mention Vladimir Titarev from Kremenchug - a very serious DXer with a serious attitude towards DX. VO: And finally, your cherished desires? MT: The same as most DXers, so I will not repeat. But the most treasured and unachievable - to lease a state HF transmitter for retransmission to abroad of a special program of domestic rock music and various advertisements on the example of KYOI-Saipan. In Leningrad, there are 9 such transmitters with a capacity of 100 kW each, used mainly for anyone who does not need to relay 1-o1 and 2-nd programs of the All-Union radio on shortwaves. All the details of this event (station name, rent, frequencies, etc.) are already thought out. So no matter what, let's hope for the appearance on the air of DX-Circle Leningrad Radio Int.! VO: Thank you, Mikhail, for an interesting conversation. Let on behalf of the readers of "EDXN" wish you a long DX (and simply) life and great DX and just success! Radio reception technology - new technologies =================================== Interesting fact. -------------------------- During the sea holidays I noticed that if the tip of the telescopic antenna was immersed in the sea, the level of reception increased sharply at 16 meters. At 19 and 25 m not so much. But also the level increased. Vadim Novoselsky, Minneapolis, USA (https://vk.com/radioreceiver) - And who tried to drown the antenna at one end, in the other to connect with the receiver, to turn the sea into an antenna.

On July 6, 2018, executions were carried out in Japan against seven leaders of the extremist sect Aum Shinrikyo (banned in the Russian Federation), including its founder, Tidzuo Matsumomto, known as Shoko Asahar ... The activities of the sect in Russia In the early 1990s, Aum Shinrikyo was active in Russia. In 1992, Asahara visited Moscow and met with a number of political and religious figures, and also spoke at leading universities in front of students. On September 20, 2016, the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation recognized Aum Shinrikyo as a terrorist organization and banned its activities on the territory of Russia. However, the sect continues to operate illegally on the territory of the country, the number of its adherents in Russia, according to the Prosecutor General's Office in 2016, reached 30 thousand people.
