Ulan-Ude. ------------------------------------------- Announcement on the sale of the radio station "Vanya", broadcasting in Ulan-Ude, is posted in the section "Ready Business" on the site of ads "Avito" on August 24. The specified price is 15 million rubles. According to experts, the FM radio market in Ulan-Ude is oversaturated. - Ulan-Ude broadcasts 20 radio stations. For our city, or rather for our advertising market, this is a lot. I think that only half of them pay off, but in reality only some 6-7 stations earn money. Probably, this is Europe Plus, Russian Radio, Road, Energy, Siberia ... No one can provide accurate data here, because holdings sell radio in "packages", where not the most successful formats are sold at the expense of time-tested brands, expert. - In Ulan-Ude its own characteristics. Sometimes very successful federal radio formats are difficult to sell here, and the format "Vani" is not, in my opinion, understandable to the audience and the advertiser. Radio "Vanya" was sounded in Ulan-Ude in the fall of 2017 at a frequency of 88.8 MHz. The format of the radio station is dance remixes of "real and past" hits. The broadcast of the radio station ochered by 100% of the LLC "Mandala" LLC, which is responsible for the broadcasting.

From RUSdx #990 (19 Aug): WHAT THE SHEETS AND MEDIUM WAVES ARE LISTENING TO YAKUTSKY REINDEERS. Yakut politician Afanasy Maksimov in one of the July posts on his F_B page wrote about the problem with the availability of broadcasting in the mountains of Verkhoyansk. Due to the cessation of broadcasting on short and medium waves in Yakutia, local reindeer herders are literally cut off from civilization. Yakut journalists discussed the problem with Viktor Sleptsov, the head of the Orto Salaa production cooperative of the Verkhoyansk ulus, who confirmed that reindeer herders have not heard Yakut or Russian broadcasting for the third year, and the only window in the world for them are Radio Liberty and International Radio China. " "For us, radio is a window to the world. We listen only to the radio, we learn all the news, it's a formed habit for years, and an accessible way of obtaining information. But for three years now the radio is inaccessible to us. (...) Now we are forced to listen to Radio Liberty and the Chinese radio in Russian. They catch very well, without interference. We listen for hours to the political situation in Ukraine. We already know more about this country than about Yakutia. And we also have access to the Chinese radio, where they talk about the communist brothers, "Sleptsov told the Yakut journalists. He complained that reindeer herders are very short of news about events in the country and the republic, concerts of pop stars, radio shows. "It's insulting and scary - suddenly a war, but we will not know," said the head of the community. Republican journalists write that the problem of shortwave and medium wave reception is relevant for all reindeer herders of Yakutia. The Ministry of Communications and Information Technologies of Yakutia, in turn, reported that the resumption of broadcasting on HF and SW is a federal issue. The agency also said that, after stopping the operation of a powerful radio broadcasting complex in the republican budget, they found money that they sent to increase the volume of Yakutia broadcasting in the FM band. "... the resumption of powerful broadcasting requires the decision and funding of the federal level. Today, the development is in the framework of FM broadcasting. Due to the moral and physical obsolescence of the equipment, which caused frequent breakdowns, pauses in broadcasting, as well as the inability to update the transmitters in connection with the cessation of their production, it was decided to turn them off in Yakutia from May this year. The released funds were directed to increase the volume of Yakut broadcasting in the FM-band. Until July 1, Sakha radio (now "Tetim") was broadcast in the uluses for a total of only 10 hours a day with two breaks. Radio listeners repeatedly pointed out the inconvenience of such interruptions and raised the issue of uninterrupted broadcasting in the settlements of the republic. Since July 1, the license of the NBC "Sakha" has been re-registered for 17-hour broadcasting in the regions of the republic, in Yakutsk the republican radio "Tateim" broadcasts 24 hours a day, "the Ministry said. The national broadcasting company "Sakha" (Yakutia) resumed broadcasting in Yakut and Russian on short waves on May 6, 2016. Since April 27, 2018, broadcasting on HF has been terminated due to the stoppage of funding.

The duty staff of the Arkhangelsk television and radio broadcasting department stopped the attempt to illegally fly and videotape the antenna-mast structure of RTRS On Monday, August 27, on guarded territory of the "old" Arkhangelsk TV and radio broadcasting facility located in the very center of the city, due to the installed video surveillance and monitoring facilities, the on-duty personnel found an unknown unmanned aerial vehicle intended for photo and video shooting. The device was a fairly large device weighing about 750 grams. with the possibility of an autonomous flight for 30-40 minutes (recall that according to the RF Air Code, aircraft weighing more than 250 grams should be officially registered and receive permission to conduct flights). In fact, the device overcame several security lines through the air, however, in connection with the loss of control, it could not independently return to the point of departure and made a forced landing on the territory of the categorized facility of the Arkhangelsk television and radio broadcasting department. Currently, law enforcement agencies are checking on this fact. Note that similar cases (according to the Security Department of the RTRS) were noted in other branches, but the incident in Arkhangelsk was the first time when the aircraft continued to operate and hand it over to law enforcement agencies.

First of all, thank you very much for your website. It is a great place for getting to know the amazing yet sometimes mysterious world of shortwave listening. It has also been particularly useful when having to choose a radio for shortwave and mediumwave reception. I've been an SWLer myself for a while now, but I've decided to actually start my own show on Channel 292, rebroadcasting the radio programme I do monthly at the local radio station in my neighborhood. It is called "Centauros del Desierto", broadcasting under the "Radio Collado" name every first Saturday of the month at 19:00UTC on 6070 (Channel 292). There is also a repetition of the show the Saturday after that at the same hour, although this is prone to change if there is a conflict in the schedule. I guess Channel 292 will warn if there is a schedule change. Here is the show's website: http://centauros.net Excellent, Diego! We will all look forward to listening to Centauros del Desierto on Channel 292, first Saturday of the month at 19:00UTC on 6070 kHz! Indeed, I'll listen for you this Saturday (September 1).
