Broadcasting on radio and television has been suspended until 17:00
Residents of the Republic of Komi are currently experiencing disruptions in their TV and radio broadcasts, as maintenance work is ongoing by the Russian Television and Radio Broadcasting Network (RTRS). This maintenance, scheduled from August 12th, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, has caused the suspension of transmission services in the region.
The unavailability of broadcasts affects both the first and second multiplexes, which are packages of digital channels from RTRS. The first multiplex includes channels such as Channel One, Russia-1, Russia-24, NTV, Match TV, and more, while the second multiplex offers optional channels like REN TV, SPAS, STS, Domashniy, and others.
Unfortunately, the specific channels affected by this outage have not been detailed in the available information. The interruption is temporary and linked solely to scheduled technical maintenance to ensure broadcasting quality and reliability.
Interestingly, the Republic of Komi branch of RTRS reported the unavailability of the first and second multiplexes, but no separate report was issued regarding the unavailability of the second multiplex.
Radio broadcasts are currently not working, but cable TV is still available for viewers in the Republic of Komi. No alternative arrangements have been announced for viewers during the maintenance work on the second multiplex.
It's worth noting that the unavailability of the second multiplex affects only the optional digital channels of RTRS-2, and the first multiplex remains unaffected. The second multiplex includes popular channels like REN TV, SPAS, STS, Domashniy, TV-3, Pyatnitsa, Zvezda, TNT, MIR, and Muz TV.
The maintenance work is not limited to the Republic of Komi, as it will also take place in Vorkuta on August 13th. However, no specific reason for the maintenance work or unavailability of the multiplexes was provided in the report.
Despite the disruptions, residents are advised to stay tuned for updates from RTRS regarding the maintenance work and the expected resumption of normal broadcasting services. The unavailability of both the first and second multiplexes continues to affect TV and radio broadcasts for residents of the Republic of Komi.
