2257 M RU ID Russkoye Piratskoye Radio @, Fanfare for the common Man Emerson
Perhaps someone more familiar with Russian and their computer slang could verify the address podradio@mail.ru. Here's an earlier recording of the announcer.
https://voca.ro/1a3QIOVy5F4i (https://voca.ro/1a3QIOVy5F4i)
He pronounces it as "pod radio sabaka mayo toczka ru." My doubt concerns the word "mayo." Peter's DX Corner presents a QSL card with the address written in Latin as above, so it should work.
https://petersdxcorner.nl/belarus/qsl-music-wave-radio-3940-khz/
The photos attached to the QSL card likely concern the station's technical details and reveal a lot about its essence:
- the transmitting antenna is a type popular in professional service called Nadinenko's Dipole
- it is suspended from tall lattice masts indicating its location in an existing broadcasting center
- the transmitter's surroundings are no longer the box of the truck-mounted military radio station from which Evgeniy began broadcasting.
Taking these facts into account, along with the recent name change to Ruskoye Piratskoye Radio (including the program profile), the conclusion is that the Russian authorities have taken over this station for their own propaganda purposes.
This is sad, because I had hoped that a group of young, progressive Russians had embarked on a path of rapprochement with Europe.
Free Wave Radio (formerly Bukhta Svobodnykh Voln) is now just one of RPR's programming blocks.

MWR's OP (jointly eQSL manager) is not the owner of the transmitter. He only rents air time.
