Radio Mayak, Russia

Long-time shortwave radio listeners will remember Russia's Radio Mayak, which at one time was rather hard to avoid on the shortwave bands, having many, many transmitters.

Mayak's shortwave broadcasts are long gone, but for those who would still like to listen to its interesting mix of Russian bands and western pop music, it is streaming over the internet here.
