Today, on the way to work, I turned on the Internet radio station “Radio Maria”. Where the frequency of 1053 kHz was announced. I switched the receiver to medium wave mode - the radio station is on the air!

ХриChristian Radio Maria resumed broadcasting on medium waves 1053 kHz. There is information about the start of broadcasting message on the vcfm.ru forum, which states the start date of broadcasting - January 19, 2026. Today, the Maria radio station operates on medium waves. According to the message above, the transmitter power is 10 kW. Judging by information from the website VCFM.ru, the mast of Radio Center No. 1 is in the village of Olgino. Which is located 4 kilometers northwest of St. Petersburg, just beyond Lakhta, on the shores of the Gulf of Finland. Transmit antenna height 205 meters, the wavelength of the radio station is 284.9 or approximately 285 meters.
The previous shutdown was due to financial difficulties, which have now been overcome.
I myself added the streaming audio address to the player http://62.152.36.132:8100/rm160. “Radio Maria” can be listened to both on your computer and via the Internet on your smartphone.
Although I consider myself Orthodox, Radio Maria has many programs on various Christian topics and answers to questions from listeners in the program “Concerned Questions” by Yuri Dorogin. In this program, the priest answers questions from radio listeners.
