-- REAT interest is at present being taken in the special broadcasts in English from Radio Centre, Moscow. There are some slight alterations and additions to the schedule published in last week’s Listener. The broadcast from 10.0-10.58 a.m. has not been heard during the past few days, so it evidently has been discontinued. A new transmission is from 5.34-5.58 p.m. in the 19-metre band on 15.18mc. Reception of this is fair to good. Each transmission usually begins with the official Russian communique, and this is followed by commentaries, then the news is presented. Advice has just been received that there is another special English transmission beginning at 9.2 p.m., but time has not permitted me to check this. This transmission is supposed to be on 15.18mc. * * * ISBON is now coming in at fair strength every morning, except Monday, from 5.0-8.40 a.m. The station is
CSW5, announced CSW cinq, and it operates on a frequency of 11.04mc, A good musical programme is presented, and occasionally English announcements are made. * * * USTRALIA has two new transmitters in operation at’ Melbourne. One is VLG6 on 15.23 me., which replaces VLR4. The other is VLG5 on 11.88mc., which replaces VLR3. Both these stations come in at fair strength in this country. a ’ m RECEPTION is still rather noisy, but in spite of this several new stations have been logged. One of these ‘was K Manila, on 9.50mc. It is on the air from 9.0 p.m. to about 1.0 a.m, and is heard at fair strength about 10.0 p.m. Another was a new Japanese station operating on 11.74mc. and linked with JER. Te comas:in ‘at fair strength :from about 1.0 a.m.
