Putin makes big changes

Russia's President Vladimir Putin has abolished the country's state-owned news agency RIA Novosti.

In a surprise decree published on the Kremlin's website on Monday, Mr Putin announced it would be replaced by a news agency called Russia Today.

The new agency will be headed by journalist and keen Kremlin supporter Dmitry Kiselev.

The state-owned Voice of Russia radio station has also been closed. The decree was effective immediately.

And from Voice of Russia

President Vladimir Putin has ordered the merger of the RIA Novosti news agency and the Voice of Russia broadcasting company to set up Rossia Segodnya (Russia Today) international news agency. The reorganization aims to ensure cost-effectiveness of the agencies, the head of the presidential administration Sergei Ivanov said.
The relevant decree, entitled "On certain measures to raise the operational effectiveness of state-owned mass media" is posted on the presidential website.
In line with the decree, as of the moment of the liquidation of RIA Novosti, the rights of its founder will be transferred to the "Rossia Segodnya" agency.
Pursuant to the decree, the news agency will manage the property, including foreign property, used by RIA Novosti for reporting Russian government policies and Russian public life abroad.
The "Rossia Segodnya" news agency will have its headquarters at 4 Zubovsky Boulevard in Moscow.
The core business of "Rossia Segodnya" will be "the coverage of Russian state policy and public life in the Russian Federation" for foreign audiences, the decree says.
The same decree liquidates the Voice of Russia state-owned broadcasting corporation. Its property will be placed under the management of "Rossia Segodnya" news agency.
Dmitry Kiselyov was appointed General Director of the new "Rossia Segodnya" news agency.

BBG Expands Collaboration with Leading International Media

December 5, 2013
Paris, France - Representatives of leading government-supported international media organizations known collectively as the DG7 agreed to expand collaboration on research - both into technologies and about audiences - and to reduce costs where possible on shortwave and satellite transmissions.
           
Officials from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG), Deutsche Welle, France Médias Monde, Japan Broadcasting Corporation (NHK) and Radio Netherlands Worldwide assembled in Paris on Dec. 2-3.  Board members Michael Meehan and Matt Armstrong attended from the BBG.

"We can tackle challenges that cross international boundaries with greater success working as a group," observed BBG Governor Meehan. "Importantly, our tech teams will gather in Bonn in January 2014 to dig into this cost-saving effort."  
 
Following the DG7 meeting, the group held a second round of discussions on Dec. 4 on information freedom and collaboration on Internet anti-censorship programs as a follow-up to its May 2013 meeting held in Brussels.      
 
"I am pleased with the increasing collaboration on Internet circumvention programs and the pledges to increase efficiencies and effectiveness in areas of shared interest, including the use of shortwave broadcasting." said BBG Governor Armstrong. "As information freedom continues to be attacked in the more than 100 countries we serve, the BBG must work creatively and cooperatively with these valuable partners, who all have very complimentary missions, to achieve our shared goals."      
     
In November, the DG7 called upon the UN Security Council to stand up against media suppression and urge governments to bring to justice those who harm journalists and media workers.

Weekend VOA Radiogram schedule

Hello friends,

This weekend on VOA Radiogram, we will conduct one more experiment. We determined from last weekend's program that text in the MFSK64 mode centered on 1000 Hz, thus 500 to 1500 Hz, was not affected by the overlapping second harmonic at 1000 to 3000 Hz. The MFSK64 image that was centered on 1000 Hz showed some horizontal interference lines. Did the harmonic cause those lines? We'll find out by transmitting that same picture in MFSK64 centered on 1500 Hz, then 1000 Hz.

I think the problem with slant in the MFSK images has been solved. Nevertheless, at the beginning of the program, we will transmit a vertical line. In Fldigi, have the Configure > Sound Card > Settings box open to make any necessary adjustments while that line is transmitted.

There will be two VOA News stories in the robust MFSK32 mode this weekend. This will help cope with difficult reception, such as European listeners experience last weekend on 15670 kHz.

Here is the lineup for VOA Radiogram, program 36, 7-8 December 2013:

 1:37  MFSK16: Program preview (2:32)
 4:10  MFSK32: Slant alignment (1:34)
 5:42  MFSK32: Capitol Christmas tree, with image (3:20)
 8:48  MFSK32: Water on exoplanets, with image (5:50)
15:06  MFSK64: Image at 1500 vs 1000 Hz center frequencies (4:51)
20:06  MFSK64/Flmsg: Radio signals and space debris, with image
       (5:01)
25:09  MFSK32: Closing announcements (:43)    

Please send reception reports to radiogram@voanews.com

I will now get started answering your reports from last weekend's experiment-filled broadcast.

I hope to hear from you this weekend.

Voice of Russia to closedown shortwave

On the PCJ Media and PCJ Radio Facebook group page, Andy Sennitt, formerly of Radio Netherlands, has posted the news that Voice of Russia will cease all shortwave transmissions on January 1, 2014. Listener's can well remember the cold war days of Radio Moscow, broadcasting 24 hours on multiple frequencies and language services. Voice of Russia was active in QSLing, and a favorite to many.

Confirmation of their plans has been posted by Andy, and can be read at : http://english.news.mn/content/164178.shtml

FRS Holland plans for Sunday program test

Dear FRS Friends,

F R S – H O L L A N D   T E S T I N G
Next Sunday December 8th FRS-Holland will conduct a test broadcast on 7310 kHz/ 41 metres.
The test will last for two hours between 10:00-12:00 UTC/ 11:00- 13:00 CET. We are understandably curious what reception is like in your particular area. Therefore we do hope as many listeners as possible will be tuning our way and send a reception report, either via e-mail or snail mail. Correct reception reports will be verified with our station QSL. You can truly help us by sending in your reception report!

I N V I T A T I O N
Our next full broadcast will be over the Holiday Season: on Sunday December 29th FRS-Holland will continue a long time tradition, ringing out 2013. It was in the early 1980s that we started with December XMas broadcasts. Only very few times in the past 33 years, FRS was absent in December. In the past years we have seen a  decline in the number of listeners willing to participate in our Seasonal broadcast.
We call on you as a faithful FRS friend and listener to take part this year…

We’d like to invite you- the listener - to participate. Forward your very own personal Season's Greetings to the Free Radio Service Holland and we will make sure it'll be read out during our broadcast. You can dedicate your greetings to friends etc. but you can also make a 'general' New Year’s Greeting.
It can be written or taped (cassette, CD, MD or MP3 file), it’s up to you! Send your message to P.O.Box 2702, 6049 ZG Herten in the Netherlands or do it the ‘quick and easy ‘way by sending an e-mail to frs@frsholland.nl.  Let’s be honest…compiling a written message only costs  a couple of minutes.
In this way you can add something personal to our December broadcast. So...don't hesitate and take part in the FRS Seasonal Party. No doubt it'll be great fun. Make sure your contribution reaches us in time....do it as soon as possible.
We are looking forward hearing from you !!! Tune in December...it'll be worth while!!! Go and tell your friends...

December 29th FRSH will be on 7600//5800 kHz and 6070 kHz for at least five hours. Programs will be presented by Jan van Dijk doing the German show. Roger Davis, celebrating his first year on the station, will be presenting another classic FRS Golden Show with great (and rare!) 60s/ 70s stuff as well as a feature on offshore radio. Peter Verbruggen will be looking  back to what happened in the past (Day Calendar) playing a mix of 80s/90s/00s records in FRS Magazine. He will also host FRS Goes DXMas with the latest news from the wonderful world of wireless. Last but not least: Paul Graham will be doing an 80s show. Within the programs October mail and Season’s Greetings will be read out. There also is the Phrase that Pays. FRS will most likely commence at  08.00 UTC/ 09.00 CET. Later on this months we will be forwarding more details about the upcoming  festive broadcast.
Good listening next Sunday!
73s, Peter V. (on behalf of the FRS staff)

Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 25 November - 01 December 2013

Solar activity was at low levels throughout the period. The largest event was a C2 flare on 25 November at 1149 UTC; from Region 1904 (N12, L=039 class/area Dai/130 on 24 November). Regions 1908 (S26, L=236 class/area Dao/230 on 29 November) and 1909 (S18, L=205 class/area Dkc/350 on 01 December) were the most productive flare-producing regions of this period; each producing numerous C1
flares during their transit across the visible disk. A coronal mass ejection (CME) was observed in SOHO/LASCO C3 coronagraph imagery beginning on 27 November at 2306 UTC and was associated with a long-duration C1 flare from Region 1907 (S09, L=272 class/area Eac/200 on 28 November) that peaked on 28 November at 0041 UTC. The WSA-ENLIL model output and forecaster analysis indicated a possible glancing blow at Earth on 02 December. A weak shock signature was observed at the ACE spacecraft on 29 November at 1250 UTC, but no reflection of the shock was observed in the Earth-based magnetometer network. 

No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at normal levels throughout this period. 

Geomagnetic field activity was quiet on 25 - 28 November under a nominal solar wind environment. The geomagnetic field increased to quiet to unsettled levels on 29 November and 01 December, with quiet to active levels observed on 30 November due to onset of a positive polarity coronal hole high speed stream (CH HSS). 

Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 02 December - 28 December 2013

Solar activity is likely to be low with a slight chance for M-class flare activity (NOAA Scale R1-R2 / Minor-Moderate) throughout the outlook period. 

No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is expected to be normal to moderate levels throughout the outlook period. 

Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at predominately quiet levels throughout the outlook period with the following exceptions: quiet to active conditions on 02 December and quiet to unsettled conditions on 03 December with passage of the 28 November coronal mass ejection (CME), quiet to unsettled conditions on 06 December and quiet to active conditions on 07 - 08 December with onset of a positive polarity coronal hole high speed stream (CH HSS), quiet to unsettled conditions on 13 - 14 December with onset of a negative polarity CH HSS, quiet to active conditions on 26 - 27 December and quiet to unsettled conditions on 28 December with onset of a positive polarity CH HSS.

AWR Wavescan's tribute to WRMI

Tribute to the Old WRMI. The noted shortwave station WRMI in Miami Florida is currently celebrating its 20th birthday.

And as a birthday gift to honor the occasion, the station will be closed down and silenced forever!

It was on November 11, 1993, just 20 years ago, that the first test broadcast was made from a temporary 400 watt transmitter on 9955 kHz. But, the WRMI story goes way back before that.

Back 10 years earlier, that is 30 years ago, the first broadcast of what was called Radio Earth was made over shortwave station Radio Clarin in Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic with 50 kW on 11700 kHz on Wednesday June 1, 1983. At the time, Radio Earth was a newly formed agency for program production on shortwave stations, with the young Jeff White as one of its active partners. Radio Earth had syndicated its programming on several shortwave stations in the United States, including WRNO, WHRI, the
previous KCBI near Dallas Texas, and Radio Milano in Italy.

Three years later, some of the Radio Earth partners started Radio Discovery, a small shortwave station in Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic. Radio Discovery gave way in 1989 to Radio Miami International
which was at first also a brokerage service for shortwave programming. However, tentative plans were already under way for their own shortwave station, and this is how it happened.

In 1985, a 5 kW shortwave transmitter was procured for intended installation on the island of Curacao in the Caribbean. This transmitter was made by the Technical Materiel Corporation in Mamaroneck, New York,
and it is similar to the shortwave transmitters that were on the air in earlier times at the chronohertz stations CHU in Ottawa Canada and WWV near Boulder in Colorado. This TMC transmitter was shipped to Iowa for modification.

Later on, Radio Discovery made a series of preliminary test transmissions from Santa Domingo with just 50 watts on 6245 and 15045 kHz, in mid March 1986. A request for the callsign HRVC had been lodged with the licensing authorities in Santo Domingo, but it was never implemented.

When the Curacao project did not work out, the concept was changed to Miami in Florida instead to Radio Miami International. Initial test broadcasts were made from an old military transmitter, model number T368,
similar to one that was in use as a standby unit at WRNO in New Orleans. The WRMI test broadcasts began from their new transmitter building near Miami with 400 watts on their standard frequency, 9955 kHz, on November 11, 1993.

In the meantime, Radio Miami International had procured the 50 kW transmitter from Radio Clarin in the Dominican Republic, which had undergone earlier test transmissions in Santo Domingo. The transmitter was
sold, transferred, refurbished and installed in the new transmitter building in North Miami.

The first test broadcasts from the newly installed 50 kW Wilkinson transmitter went on the air on Friday April 1, 1994. This was an open carrier beamed on South America; and audio tests began a few days later. A schedule of regular programming was inaugurated on 9955 kHz on June 14, 1994 at 0100 UTC.

The antenna system at WRMI is a unique though very reliable corner reflector at 160 degrees, beamed on the Caribbean and South America. The prime frequency has been 9955 kHz, though in earlier times, three
different channels in the 7 MHz band have been in use, as well as 15725 kHz in the 19 m band.

The programming from shortwave WRMI has usually been in English and Spanish, with at times a relay of programming from other shortwave services, including for example, Radio Prague in the Czech Republic and
Radio Desanm in Haiti. When WRMI took a satellite relay from the World Radio Net WRN in England, many different international radio stations have been heard via WRMI, including Radio Australia, NHK Tokyo in Japan, and China Radio International in Beijing.

We might also add, that the AWR DX programs have been on the air via Radio Earth, Radio Discovery and WRMI since way back in 1984. At the time, the program title was "Radio Monitors International" and the broadcasts were recorded in the Poona (Pune) studios of Adventist World Radio.

Beginning in 1993, much of the programming from Miami's WRMI was heard on delayed relay via the 1 kW Radio Copan Internacional in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. When the transmitter was shut down two years later for maintenance and modification, that station never returned to the air on shortwave.

Radio Miami International WRMI has been a very reliable verifier, and the Indianapolis Heritage Collection holds more than 100 cards in many different designs.

And so, after all these many years of splendid service, shortwave station WRMI in Miami is closing for ever at the end of this month, and right around the time of its 20th birthday. The first test broadcast was on
November 11, 1993, and the station is going silent twenty years later, on November 30, 2013.

Ah, but as you know, that is not the end of the story. Beginning on December 1, the new and much larger WRMI takes to the air from Okeechobee in lower central Florida. You will hear more about that here in Wavescan next week.

BBC Media Centre on Indian Oceans Relay Station closure

BBC Media Centre - 21 December 2013
The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) announced today that the Indian Ocean Relay Station (IORS) transmitter site at Grand Anse, Mahe, will cease all shortwave transmissions on 29 March 2014.

The site was established in 1988 and has been in continuous service since then, relaying BBC broadcasts to audiences in East Africa primarily in English and Somali.

The closure will not affect the availability of BBC World Service programmes in Seychelles, which are relayed from satellite broadcasts on to local FM frequencies 106.2, 105.6 and 105.2MHz. In areas of East Africa still dependent upon shortwave broadcasts, the signal will be supplied by other relay stations. The announcement follows an earlier decision to stop all shortwave broadcasts from the BBC World Service site in Cyprus for similar commercial, technological and audience reach reasons. These ended in March of this year.

The announcement will unfortunately result in 11 staff being put at risk of redundancy. The staff over the last 25 years have operated and maintained this shortwave broadcast facility with passion, expertise and
professionalism. The technical ability and commitment of the team at the IORS has been applauded by the BBC World Service.

The decision to close the site has been taken due to changing commercial and technological circumstances. As countries develop and their media markets open, listening and viewing habits have changed. New technology has changed the way audiences listen to BBC programmes and reduced the importance of shortwave broadcasts in much of the area currently served by the IORS, making the IORS commercially unviable.

The BBC is supporting the development of new delivery platforms such as internet and mobile streaming as well as FM radio and TV broadcasts. Shortwave broadcasts continue to regions and markets where listening
remains strong and BBC services can be delivered efficiently to large geographic areas.
