We previously reported that the Voice of Russia (formerly
Radio Moscow) had ended all shortwave broadcasts as of January 1, 2014. In
early January, the ARRL Letter reported that shortwave listener and
blogger Tom Witherspoon, K4SWL, had heard directly from the broadcaster that
"the Voice of Russia will stay on the air in 2014." However, it said
there would be "considerable changes in our frequency schedule." Most
of the station's transmissions are now aimed toward the Middle East and Asia.
