Radio.

Great progress has been made in radio engineering, radio communications, radio broadcasting and television since the day when the Russian scientist Alexander Popov demonstrated his “storm indicator” which was the prototype of modern radio receivers.

In the modern world, radio and television play an important role as mass media of information, and as a means of people`s political and cultural education. Radio and television like no other information media enable millions of Soviet people to feel like immediate participants in events occurring far away from their homes.

The Central Radio Broadcasting Station has seven channels for the Soviet Union which operate for a total of 140 hours a day.

The voice of Soviet radio is heard all over the world. Programmers to other countries are conducted in 79 Languages and total 210 hours a day.

Modern means of radio engineering cover the greater part of the world with long, medium and ultra-short radio-waves. Nevertheless, the technical means are begin perfected. The number of radio stations in our country is growing constantly. The inter-town lines for programmers which are to be relayed via local radio stations and radio centers are to double. The number of receivers will be increased from 86 million to 132 million (including 80 million radio sets and 52 million radio receivers)

In connection with the growth of radio broadcasting and with the ideas of perfecting its quality, it is planned to build for Moscow`s Central Radio Broadcasting Station another technological-studio unit with 56 broadcasting studios and a large concert studio. This unit will be housed in a thirty-storey building which will de connected with the central building of the USSR Radio House in Pyatnitskaya Street. The new technological studio unit will be fitted with the most modern transistor devices.
