Press release



The first thing the radio broadcasted in the new season was the speech of Egor Rybakov, the Chair of the National State TV and Radio Company, who came from the capital to congratulate his colleagues. The presentation and press-conference were attended by the municipal and regional administration, representatives of business circles and journalists.
"Radio Brest" was created on the basis of Brest regional radio, which has been broadcasting through wire network for over 60 years. It should be noted that Brest region preserved almost the whole of its wire network. Yet, keeping up with the times, "Radio Brest" launched a 5-hour program on the frequency 69.68 VHF May 20, 2002. October 1, 2002 the broadcast time was increased up to 10 hours. January 1, 2003 it was raised to 15 hours and September 16, 2003 up to 18 hours. The FM transmitter, acquired by Belteleradiocompany, will allow "Radio Brest" to ultimately expand its target audience. The team of "Radio Brest" is dead set to embrace this opportunity.
