Radio 1

State radio station (1924–1997)

Comintern Radio Station

On November 23, 1924, the Radio for All JSC (from December 1 of the same year, the Radio Broadcasting JSC) began broadcasting its own program. On July 13, 1928, the Radio Broadcasting Company was liquidated, and the Comintern Radio Station was transferred to the NKTP of the USSR, in 1931 - to the All-Union Radio Broadcasting Committee of the NKTP of the USSR. In 1933, the preparation of programs of the Comintern Radio Station program was transferred to thematic editions under the direct command of the All-Union Committee on Radio and Radio Information .

First program

In 1957, instead of the thematic editions, the General Directorate of Programs, the thematic main editions of the State Committee of the USSR Council of Ministers on Television and Radio Broadcasting, were created. From about the same period, the first program was broadcast by local television stations on ultrashort waves. At the end of the 1980s, the radio show “Ordered to Survive” was broadcast based on the television film Seventeen Moments of Spring (19:30) and Alan Chumak’s sessions (22:30 ) From April 30, 1990, at one of the frequencies of Radio-1 ( VHF - 69.8 MHz in Moscow), the radio station “Europe plus Moscow” began to broadcast.

Radio 1

In 1992, the broadcast of the radio program was transmitted to the Russian television and radio company Ostankino, a TV studio Studio Radio-1 created at that time (the latter was created instead of the USSR State TV and Radio Company on December 27, 1991). From January 13, 1995, Radio Retro began broadcasting on the Moscow frequency Radio 1 (72.92 VHF). Broadcasting was conducted without DJs from 8:00 to 11:00, from 14:00 to 18:00 and from 20:00 to 1:00. The Russian Federal Service for Television and Radio Broadcasting threatened to take away the license for broadcasting from Radio 1, since the broadcasting format did not match the licensing one. From February 1, 1996, Radio Retro took over the entire broadcasting frequency. On May 17, 1996, the broadcasting of the program “Radio-1” was transmitted to the eponymous public institution ^[1] .

ZAO Radio-1 (1997–2010)

On August 4, 1997, the President of the Russian Federation issues Decree No. 823 “On Improving the Structure of Public Broadcasting in the Russian Federation”, [1] on the basis of which the All-Russian Radio Station Radio 1 was eliminated and airtime on the third wire broadcasting program was transmitted to local radio companies. In Moscow, on the “third button”, the radio station “Moscow Speaks” began to broadcast. Soon, Radio-1 was established (96% of the shares were Moskovit, ZAO, 4% were the journalistic team, including editor-in-chief Diana Berlin and editor of the air Tatyana Zubova, and Radio-1, a private radio company, began broadcasting on long waves ( the radio began from 7.00).

At the end of 1999, Muscovite was tired of financing an unprofitable radio station. Iosif Kobzon , in his words, directly told Diana Berlin: “There is no money - it is necessary to bankrupt the company. And urgently. However, a quick bankruptcy failed. Berlin promised to “do something”, letters of workers appeared asking to save the beloved radio.

Meanwhile, the debts of the companies grew. The duty only “for the signal” of “Radio-1” was $ 1.3 million. The structures of the All-Russian State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company have already filed several claims against the radio station, and in early May decided to suspend broadcasting ^[2] . Diana Berlin begged only permission to visit some more for veterans during the May holidays. On the night from May 14 to May 15, 2000, Radio-1 was silent. Moskovit did not expect to return the money invested in the radio station. But, just in case, the Muscovite structures also filed lawsuits against the radio station. According to the claims of the All-Russian State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company, all equipment was removed from the office of Radio-1. On this, of course, you can put an end to the story, but there is a second part.

Immediately afterwards, the founders changed - they were the “Foundation for the Protection of Ideas of Humanism and Regional Strategy” and the Moscow Intellectuals Foundation, a subsidiary of the Gorbachev Foundation (Novaya Gazeta, June 5, 2000). The radio station resumed its broadcast on July 9, 2000 on VHF 68.3 MHz, 4.39 m. Shareholders of Radio-1 OJSC (2001): CASTLEBLAZE DEVELOPMENTS Company - 20%; BEVELAN SUPPLY COMPANY - 20%; TARIBO TRADING COMPANY - 20%; SHADOMOUNT SUPPLY COMPANY - 20%; Moskovit OJSC - 15.1%; Diana Berlin - 1.1%; Komissarova L.S. - one %. Shareholders of ZAO Radio-1. Culture ”(2001): Gorbachev, Mikhail Sergeevich - 27%; Virganskaya, Irina Mikhailovna (daughter of Mikhail S. Gorbachev) - 10%; Bondar, Vladimir Anatolyevich - 10%; Kozyreva, Natalia Mikhailovna - 14%; Nasonov, Andrei Lvovich - 14; Medvedev, Mikhail Arkadyevich - 20%; Berlin, Diana Iosifovna - 5%.

In 2001, the radio station is a “family-type” radio station, focused mainly on listening to an audience of 25-49 years old (Current based Adult Contemporary. At the beginning of each hour there is a news release. The staff of Radio-1 cover legislative, executive, and the judicial authorities of the Russian Federation, carry out press reviews, broadcast programs for children. The musical accompaniment is popular music, rock, jazz, classical, retro, art song, cinema music, instrumental music. Preference is given to techestvennoy music that relates to foreign by the formula 65%:. 35% ^[3] Editor in Chief and Chairman of the Board of Directors - Diana losifovna Berlin - resigned in summer 2001 with the majority of employees in 2001 CEO -. Nasonov, Andrew L. .

In 2003—2004 on weekdays at midnight, retransmission of China Radio International was carried out.

In 2005, radio broadcasting began broadcasting from 6:00 to 24:00. At 0:00 the children's programs begin, then literary-dramatic programs, somewhere from 2:00 until the end of their own broadcast at 5:00 - music (mostly western stage). According to TNS Gallup Media, 30,800 people were a daily audience in Moscow, and the station was in 39th place ^[4] .
The volume of broadcasting was 8 hours at night and from 12 am to 8 am in Moscow in the VHF band. The rest of the time - Radio Liberty . In the first half of January 2010, the broadcast was completely given to Radio Liberty , and on January 14 of that year Radio 1 returned to service. It could be recognized by the beating at the end of the hour: you are listening to the “Radio-1 Center in Moscow at 68.3”. ^[five]

On the night of June 20-21, 2010 , exactly at midnight , Radio-1 broadcasting on the last frequency of 68.3 VHF was completely discontinued - the last song sounded on the air was symbolically the soundtrack to the film “ Mission Impossible ” as part of “Jazz Time” on Radio Liberty. The Radio-1 mission really became impossible in the conditions of the market and a changing country without government subsidies and with the conservatism of the creative team — this showed the entire experience of Radio-1 in the post-Soviet period. ^[6] . So ended the history of Radio-1 - the first radio of Russia and one of the last Soviet symbols in the national cultural and media field. The radio station existed for 85 full years. Passengers of long-distance trains listen to the so-called “train radio”, the air of which partially resembles Radio-1.
