Information on the information providers themselves – broadcasters as well as the myriad other delivery platforms – is to a certain extent available in the public domain. But it is disparate, not necessarily correct or complete, and the context is missing. The AIB Global Broadcasting Sourcebook fills this gap by providing an intelligent framework based on expert research. It is a tool that gets you quickly to what you are looking for.

  • External Services on Medium Wave
    British DX Club External Services of the World on Mediumwave includes schedules and information, and a frequency order list of external services May 2021 DX Guide External Services of the World on Mediumwave Contents updated: 12 May 2021 2 Introduction 3-30 External services on mediumwave by continent and country: 3-7 Europe 8-12 Africa 13-17 Middle East, East Mediterranean and the Caucasus 17-26 Asia 27-29 Americas 30-57 Frequency order list of external services on mediumwave Introduction This is a guide to external services broadcasting on mediumwave in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Caucasus, Asia and the Americas. It is compiled with the intention of highlighting some of the more interesting services and programmes for the DXer and mediumwave listener. Many external services originate from high-power transmitters and offer a good opportunity to hear and identify more distant stations on mediumwave, especially as the use of clear ID's and familiar interval signal tunes often makes it easier to pick them out on a crowded channel. This guide will be regularly updated and more will be added in future. If you have any corrections, additions, comments or suggestions that will help inprove things, then they are more than welcome. There may be some unintentional errors that have crept in whilst compiling this first edition, so any help in getting these put right would also be greatly appreciated. Please send details to Tony Rogers by email at [email protected]. ______________________________________________________________________________________ 2 Europe Bosnia and Hercegovina Bosnia and Hercegovina - Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (Balkan Service) RFE/RL's Balkan Service in Bosnian is relayed by Radio 1503 Zavidovići, a partner of RFE/RL, daily at 0000, 0800, 1500, 1800 and 2200 local time, according the the RFE/RL website.

  • THE ARRIVAL of RADIO FARDA: INTERNATIONAL BROADCASTING to IRAN at a CROSSROADS by Hansjoerg Biener*
    THE ARRIVAL OF RADIO FARDA: INTERNATIONAL BROADCASTING TO IRAN AT A CROSSROADS by Hansjoerg Biener* Abstract: On December 19, 2002, Radio Farda, the new U.S. external service in Persian, officially started regular broadcasts on shortwave, mediumwave and satellite. With the reformatting of existing services into a 24-hour news and entertainment channel, external broadcasting to Iran has recently received more attention. Iran, however, has always been the target area of various international broadcasting services.(1) In its first worldwide press-freedom index published on October 23, 2002, Reporters Without Borders ranked Iran 122nd among 139 countries surveyed.(2) So, the need for independent reporting seems obvious, while some question the need for embedding news and information in a music and entertainment format. This article examines the question in the broader context of international broadcasting to Iran, including clandestine and even religious stations. CLASSIC EXTERNAL resumed operation. The service almost BROADCASTING exclusively drew on native speakers Having been a major political factor some of whom had broadcasting both under Shah Reza Pahlavi and under experience in Iranian radio and Mullah rule, Iran has been a traditional television before 1979. In the 1980s, target area for official external services long before the arrival of e-mail, the both from neighboring countries like Farsi service received several hundred Iraq, Kuwait, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and letters per week in response to the Turkey, as well as the world’s broadcasts.(3) On October 17, 1996, superpowers. In the framework of Voice of America and Worldnet centralized USSR external broadcasting, launched a weekly, call-in radio and TV Radio Baku of the Soviet Republic simulcast in Farsi, the first regularly Azerbaijan only had a minor role as an recurring program to be produced in full external broadcaster, which did however at the VoA headquarters.

  • L'avenir De La Radiodiffusion Internationale
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by UCLouvain: Open Journal Repository (Université catholique de Louvain) L’AVENIR DE LA RADIODIFFUSION INTERNATIONALE Bernard Wuilleme1 La question de l’avenir de la radiodiffusion internationale, pour ne pas dire de sa survie, cette question est posée depuis la Chute du Mur de Berlin le 9 novembre 1989, même si cette date est symbolique. En effet, depuis sa naissance depuis les années 1930, la radiodiffu- sion internationale n’a cessé d’avoir un rôle paradoxal. Si sa création a des motifs bien précis : informer ses ressortissants à l’étranger de ce qui se passe en métropole, la réalité deviendra rapi- dement très différente pour devenir un outil de propagande aux mains des Etats. Car faut-il le rappeler : la radiodiffusion internationale est une radio fi nancée, dirigée (ses directeurs sont nommés par le gouver- nement du pays) par les États. Bref rappel de cette « histoire de la radiodiffusion internatio- nale » : – 1930-1939 : Période d’avant-guerre où les forces de l’Axe s’in- téressent aux publics récepteurs des pays colonisés ou sous mandat pour les convaincre de se rebeller contre la métropole. Bien entendu contre-propagande des États colonisateurs sur les mêmes publics. 1 Professeur en Sciences de l’Information et de la Communication Université Jean Moulin Lyon 3 Recherches en communication, n° 26 (2006). 184 BERNARD WUILLEME – 1939-1945 : Véritable « guerre des ondes » entre d’une part les Alliés (Grande-Bretagne, France, États-Unis, Hollande, Belgique, etc) qui contre carrent les actions de propagande, de désinformation, d’intoxication des forces ennemies (Allemagne, Italie, Japon).
