I suggest moving this to Radio Moscow, since that is the name used in the article Fornadan 19:11, 21 May 2005 (UTC)


Radio Moscow had a sister shortwave station called Radio Station Peace and Progress: The Voice of Soviet Public Opinion. There should possibly be an article about that too. Lee M 14:46, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

IIRC, Peace and Progress went on the air in the mid 80's, before Gorbachev took over and I remember on the couple of occasions I listened to it it's programmes were pretty dull. This was not the only extra English-language programme, there were also broadcasts aimed at North America and at the British Isles and (I think) Africa. These only operated for short periods of the day whereas the World Service was 24 hours a day on dozens of frequencies. Any World Radio TV Handbook for the late 80s should have details of all these services (if I knew Misplaced Pages would come along 15 years later I'd have kept mine)...
