Eesti TV suomeksi 1957

Tammikuussa 2010 hollantilainen tutkija oli lähettänyt Yleen kyselyitä 
asian tiimoilta, hän mm kysyi suoraan: tehtiinkö Helsingin (Espoon) masto v 
1971 tarkoituksella turhan korkeaksi.


Spontaanisti syntyi email-rengas, jossa oli mukana mm Ylen 
Verkkosuunnittelun eläkeläisiä työkavereitani. Kuten eräs näistä kirjoitti: 
- asemalle tehtiin antennit, joilla oli Suomen näkyvyyden kannalta 
tarpeettoman suuret säteilytehot etelän suuntaan.  Kukaan ryhmästä ei 
käynyt arvailemaan oliko se tarkoitus ja kuka ne suunnitteli.  Paavo 
Velander, joka tuli Yleen neuvontainsinööriksi maaliskuussa 1937 ja oli 
ihan oleellisissa rooleissa, ei kirjoissaan ja teksteissään juurikaan 
tainnut ottaa kantaa juuri asioiden tähän puoleen.


- Tallinnassa Suomen telkkaria katsottiin sisäantenneillakin, kun KGB 
rupesi 1980-luvulla kyttäämään Suomeen suunnattuja kattoantenneja. 
Naissaareen tehtiin häirintälähetin vuonna 1987 antenneineen, mutta sitä ei 
koskaan otettu käyttöön ja vehkeet purettiin vähin äänin. Joku 
ruudinkeksijä jopa ehdotti 20 metrin korkean teräsverkon rakentamista 
Suomen TV:n näkyvyyden lopettamiseksi.


- Nyt Virossa ei näy mikään Espoon digikanava, johtuen tehorajoituksista ja 
hölmöstä Espoo Fiskars SFN ratkaisusta, jonka piti olla väliaikainen. 
Tallinnassa Starmanin kaapeli-TV:n kautta välitetään YLEn 1 ja 2, maikkaria 
ja nelosta ei ole.

Eesti TV suomeksi 1957

Varmaan joku näkee jossakin vaiheessa myös Espoo digilähetyksiä, ainakin 
hyvällä kelillä.


Meillä oli Tallinnassa Tv:n katolla antenni ja RS mittalaite Rihon 
huoneessa melkein 10 vuotta.
Analogia-ajan tuloksista olemme vääntäneet jonkinlaisen raportin aikoinaan 
pdf-muotoon.
Data taitaa olla - Jokelan, Sodankylän, Hammarlandin ym mittausten keralla 
täällä kämpilläni.


Vasta 1992 toukokuussa kävimme mittausauton kanssa Tallinnan ympäristössä 
mittailemassa,
samalla kävimme idässä päin pitkin rannikkoa, Laitsessa ym. Ensi kertaa 
olin Tallinnassa
heinäkuussa 1965, Ylen porukka oli varannut joukon lippuja, taisi olla 
koematka numero 2.
Sen jälkeen kävimme hamssiporukalla vuodesta toiseen. Yksi hamssi aikanaan 
ihmetteli, että
Tallinnan tulli ei 70 ja 80-luvuilla tehokkaammin pyrkinyt takavarikoimaan 
PAL-dekooderipiirejä
ja kiteitä yms mitä hamssejenkin toimesta sinne rahdattiin tuolloin aika 
isojakin määriä ?


Itse vein sinne ainakin 70-luvulla Helge Granbergin Motorolalta lähettämiä 
isohkoja transistoreita
ja sieltä päin toimme aika suuriakin putkia. Kerran heitin yhden VHF-putken 
tullin syliin, ei edes
suuttunut sillä kertaa. Ajat olivat 60. ja 70-luvulla aika lailla 
erilaiset. Lasnamäellä oli Migejä...

The Indian Information and Broadcasting Ministry's total plan and non-plan 
budget for 2012-13 has risen marginally to Rs 27.37?billion compared to Rs 
26.44 billion last year and the revised estimates of Rs 26.05 billion.?The 
allocation for the Ministry includes an outlay of Rs 935.5 million for projects 
in the north eastern part of the?country including Sikkim.?The allocation under 
the head 'Secretarial-Social Services' has been doubled to Rs 1.27 billion as 
against the revised?estimates for last year of Rs 639.8 million and the 2011-12 
allocation of Rs 754.5 million. This will also be spent?towards the centenary 
celebration of Indian cinema, the National Film Heritage Mission, the proposed 
National Centre for?

Animation and Gaming, and anti-piracy activities.

With the government reiterating that it will adhere to the sunset date for 
switching off analogue, this allocation could?help create the infrastructure 
and also awareness about the benefits of digitisation.?The allocation for Press 
Information Services which includes grants to the Press Council of India has 
been lowered to Rs?588.9 million from last year's Rs 592.4 million and the 
revised estimates of Rs 543.4 million, to meet the expenses for?the Press 
Information Bureau, the Press Council of India, and for running the non-aligned 
countries news pool.

The allocation to the Electronic Media Monitoring Centre has been marginally 
reduced to Rs 43.8 million from the revised?estimates of Rs 42.8 million in 
2011-12 (as against the Rs 45 million allocated in the budget last year). The 
EMMC was set?up for monitoring television and radio channels for violation of 
programme and advertising codes.?The allocation for advertising and visual 
publicity has been raised to Rs 1.66 billion as against the allocation last 
year?of Rs 1.23 million, following the increase in the advertising rates of the 
Directorate of Advertising and Visual?Publicity.

Meanwhile, for the third year in a row, the government has not announced any 
investment in the National Film Development?Corporation.The grant-in-aid to 
Prasar Bharati in the budgetary allocation of the Ministry has been increased 
to Rs 15.74 billion as?against Rs 14.84 billion in 2011-12 and the revised 
allocation of Rs 15.74 billion.?However, there is increase in the Ministry's 
investment in Prasar Bharati: with Rs 4.01 billion in the plan outlay and 
an?additional Rs 4 billion in the non-plan outlay as against last year's total 
investment of Rs 3.8 billion which was revised?later in the year to Rs 2.76 
billion.

Prasar Bharati sources told indiantelevision.com said this had been done to 
meet the extra expenditure on salaries which?has fallen on the shoulders of the 
Government since all Prasar Bharati employees who were in employment as on 5 
October?2007 have been given deemed deputation status.?While the grant-in-aid 
is to cover the gap in resources for meeting revenue expenditure, the 
investment is to finance the?capital expenditure of the pubcaster.

However, despite the reference in his speech to the centenary of Indian cinema, 
Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee has?announced a drastic cut in the budget for 
the film sector in the Ministry.?The budget 

[HCDX] BBC ups investments in international biz coverage

2012-03-20 Thread Jaisakthivel
BBC is increasing its investments into newsgathering and international business 
coverage from emerging markets such as Asia and BRIC countries. The pubcaster 
has launched an international search for a new role of chief business 
correspondent as part of its drive to expand the breadth and depth of its 
international business coverage. Based in East Asia, the BBC is looking for a 
heavyweight journalist who can bring fresh global perspectives and break major 
stories from around the world.

While their prime focus will be reporting for international outlets such as BBC 
World News, BBC World Service and BBC.com, the successful candidate will also 
bring major stories and reports to UK audiences across the BBC's flagship UK 
news services. They will report across all platforms - TV, radio and online.
The announcement follows the BBC's decision last year in its Delivering Quality 
First report, to put new investment into newsgathering in global priority areas 
such as the BRIC countries and emerging markets such as Asia.

BBC Global News director Peter Horrocks said, This high-profile appointment is 
just one part of significant investment in global newsgathering. It will 
strengthen our international reporting from priority areas such as the emerging 
markets in Asia. Added BBC's business and economics unit head Jon Zilkha said, 
Robert Peston and Stephanie Flanders, who lead the BBC's business and 
economics coverage, ensure the BBC is widely renowned for its exclusive 
reporting and commentary. This new role will help enrich the way our programmes 
tell the story of business as a new economic world order emerges.

Radio Australia will commence a DRM schedule from its main Pacific station at 
Shepparton, Victoria from 1 April 2012. Average power is 40 kW from a 
Continental 418G transmitter. Competent reception reports welcome especially 
notifying interference to the RA transmissions. Include postal details if 
emailing reports.

Broadcasts to central Pacific may also be audible in North America; broadcasts 
to the south-west Pacific and PNG may also be audible in eastern Australia. 
Broadcasts to south-east Asia may be audible in Europe.

** BRAZIL. 11925.1, March 20 at 0535, Portuguese conversation, poor signal, but 
barely // 9645.3 under Vatican het, R. Bandeirantes as usual slightly off to 
the hi side.

Scanned 25m for other Brasilians after hearing that propagate and found only: 
stronger signal slightly below 11765-, SRDA Curitiba, instead of usual wacky 
wailer David Miranda, an equally emotional dramatic dialog by sobbing WM. MUF 
barely reached 12 MHz with no broadcasters above 12030 DVR audible; see RUSSIA

** CHINA. Firedrake March 20:
11500, fair at 1339; none higher
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) But see EAST TURKISTAN 13855

** EAST TURKISTAN. 13855, March 20 at 1342, in Chinese with ``El Condor Pasa`` 
on pan flute and other Zamfir tunes mixed with talk, 1349 ``Sandunga``. Gone at 
1409 check. VG signal despite lack of any Firedrakes in the 13s or other 
ranges. 

HFCC shows 13855 at 13-14 only, CRI in Chinese, 500 kW, 308 degrees from 
Urumqi, so quite a near-transpolar inboomer. Propagation is finally picking up 
after all the geomag storms. Rivaled neighbor WWCR 13845 which was also 
inbooming, presumably with some springtime HF sporadic-E help (Glenn Hauser, 
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA. 15045-15050-15055, March 20 at 1410, plenty of DRM noise here from 
AIR Sinhala service at 13-15, now making it again with trans-polar propagation 
improving. 

After sitting out the B-11 season, AIR has resumed registering its schedules 
with HFCC for A-12:
http://www.hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=A12broadc=AIR
with this one continuing. Trouble is, HFCC has not yet figured out how to mark 
which transmissions are DRM, while in the master frequency list they are 
denoted N for the French numérique (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** IRAN. 17670, March 20 at 1414, fair signal in Arabic with salaam, pensive 
monolog, presumably religiously-inspired, amid IRIB`s 6-hour service from 1030, 
500 kW, 259 degrees from Kamalabad to N Africa, also Iberia and Mideast, which 
also makes it here when hi-latitude propagation is coöperating as it had not 
been for a couple of weeks (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** LEBANON [non]. 9645, March 20 at 0540, song in Arabic, via Vatican Radio, 
but based on previous observations, this is a relay of Voice of Charity, which 
has four (not just three as in WRTH) FM frequencies in Lebanon. See 
http://www.radiocharity.org/aboutus.html

WRTH 2012 says it is at 0530-0600 on 11715, which is the // VR frequency for 
Arabic from 0500, the first half of which is their own (11715 here inaudible 
except for R. Japan USward in Russian from 0530). 0555 song about Allah, so 
apparently these Maronite Christians are allowed to use that Arabic word for 
their version of god. 

0556 fanfare, and ID as Sawt al-Hidat? Not at all sure of that word, however 
you say charity in Arabic. Google translate is no help, pronouncing only the 
English word and providing no Romanization of several possible words! What is 
it, Tarek? Cut off at 0557 after just two notes of the VR IS. All the while, 
had het from q.v. Brasil 9645.3 but dominating it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX

This week's show features stories from China Radio International, NHK World 
Radio Japan, 
Spanish National Radio, Radio Havana Cuba, and Radio Deutsche-Welle.
From CHINA- Japan held memorials last Sunday, the first anniversary of the 
Fukushima 
tragedy. The Islamic jihad in Gaza is claiming victory in the now ended battle 
with Israel that 
saw 25 Palestinians killed. China is saying that it is not engaged in trade 
protectionism over 
its restricted sales of rare earth minerals.
From JAPAN- Japan, the US, and the EU will file complaints with the WTO over 
China's rare 
earth sales. The IAEA is concerned about the safety of all nuclear power plants 
over 20 years 
old. Prime Minister Noda wants to begin restarting Japan's nuclear power 
plants, but public 
sentiment is strongly opposed. Radiation levels at the Fukushima power plants 
are still too 
high for workers to inspect or repair. Next month Japan will enforce tougher 
limits on 
radiation present in food products.
From CUBA- Afghan students staged protests after an American soldier murdered 
16 
civilians and burned many of the bodies. More than 3/4's of Brits polled 
believe a victory in 
Afghanistan is impossible, and 55% want an immediate withdrawal of troops. The 
US is 
investigating the Afghan Air Force for transporting drugs and weapons. 
Argentina has 
formally declared that the Malvina Islands are theirs and not what the British 
claim as the 
Falklands. Peru has officially passed a law banning genetically modified 
ingredients 
anywhere in the country for a full decade before a review.
From SPAIN- Spanish researchers have shown the effectiveness of a molecule 
found in 
common Spanish forests for treating cancer. Bolivian President Morales wants to 
decriminalize the coca leaf. The European Parliament wants women to occupy 40% 
of the 
seats in boards of companies. Then three press reviews about popular protests 
in Spain.
From GERMANY- The new government of Spain is rapidly changing labor laws and 
meeting 
huge popular resistance- a massive strike is scheduled for the end of March.
There is an article about the Shortwave Report by Cassandra Roos on line -
http://www.campusprogress.org/soundvision/780/big-stories-shortwaves

I was interviewed for an informative weekly radio show Mediageek, available at 
http://radio.mediageek.net

All that plus times and frequencies for listening at home. It's free to 
rebroadcast, please notify 
me if you're airing it and haven't notified me in the last month, please 
mention the website if 
you only air a portion. If you just want to listen and have a slow connection, 
try the streaming 
version- lower sound quality but good enough and way easier if you don't have a 
high-speed 
internet connection. If streaming is a problem because of your slow connection, 
download the 
smaller file- it takes 20 minutes or less, and will play swell in any mp3 
player application 
(RealPlayer, Winamp, Quicktime, iTunes, etc) you have on your computer.
NEW TIME SLOT on KZYX! This program will be aired on Sunday afternoon at 4pm 
(PDST) 
on KZYX/Z Philo CA, you might be able to stream via  http://www.kzyx.org 
There are several other streams that work better-  http://www.freakradio.org

I hope you'll listen and air this if you're connected with a radio station. I 
am still wondering 
how to get financially compensated for the 25 hours I put into this program 
weekly- any ideas 
are appreciated. Any stations rebroadcasting this (or listeners) are welcome to
