"Listen, Moscow speaks!" a poster by artist Viktor Govorkov.
The first Soviet radio station was All-Union Radio. Between 1920 and 1922, it used the radio tower in Moscow designed by Vladimir Shukhov. In 1925, the Radio Commission of the Central Committee began supervision of broadcasting in the Soviet Union. The first live, Soviet broadcast took place during the November 1925 funeral of Mikhail Frunze, People's Commissar for Military and Naval Affairs. Approximately 150 "radio enthusiasts" were listening to programs by 1925, and radio clubs were forming across the nation.
By 1927, the Soviet Union had twenty-nine major (state-run) radio stations and programming began to catch-up to Europe and the United States.
In the 1930s, a past-time came into being-- listening to New Year's programs on the family "tarelka" or "tochka", a plate-like receiver. During World War II, radio afforded citizens to hear the voice of their leader, Josef Stalin. By the 1950s, Soviet radio had become formulaic with drab news programs and symphonic music. It was not until the 1960s that broadcasters developed more listening options.
I've used SAMHSA before to find a rehab, 2 times now and both times it helped me out greatly so I want to share this with the community for anyone who wants to make the plunge.
