nineties and found the results so disappointing that they soon left in

RUSSIA RE:
Performing a Ru to En AltaVista language translation on the websites as
recently provided by Kai Ludwig & Wolfgang Bueschel it "appears" that SW
broadcasting from the St. Petersburg - Popovka (Krasnyi Bor) site
commenced in January 1962. Initial construction may have commenced as far
back as 1957.

Brazhnikov in Irkutsk with huge signal, almost as strong as a local
station. It replaces 3955 kHz because of better propagation in Siberia.

SERBIA/BOSNIA [and non]. Yesterday I again phoned Belgrade, technical
department of International Radio Serbia, and here is some news. Spare
parts for Bijeljina transmitter, Bosnia arrived in Belgrade airport
waiting for customs. Because there are some legal problems between Serbia
and Bosnia, this would be processed in about one or two months period.
When spare parts actually arrive in Bijeljina, very soon the broadcasts
with 250 kW will start. Till then, Stubline, Serbia mobile transmitter
with only 10 kW is operational (1300-2100 UT, 7240 kHz). P.S. My personal
opinion is that it is very possible that would be more delayed. The
situation is very complicated. Probably next year new law will determine
the future of Intl R Serbia.
