In Japan, there was Soviet TV sound in the frequency band of FM broadcasting, so I heard this fanfare depending on the time. Since Japan is an island country, there is basically no TV in the neighboring country. This is Tokyo.

Old analogue VCR's never liked the fluctuating signal typical of Sporadic-E propagation. I tried recording the Phillips PM5544 from Iceland 'RUV ISLAND'. It was fading in & out just the same. As I am in the UK you only saw RUV ISLAND (E3) or the German FUBK test pattern 'GRUNTEN' on E2 with intense openings. Usually the closest distance was around 1000 miles which usually meant the Czech RS-KH test pattern or RTVE (Spain). I only saw E. German TV on E3 via Sp-E once. I used to have to threaten my brother regularly as his Sinclair Spectrum used to throw out stupendous amounts of 'hash' and swamp Band I.
@LeSarthois @MCSimRUS: East Germany was using SECAM B/G till 1990. The SECAM carrier is not stable cause multipath distortion in the E-layer. Long and stable PAL or SECAM colour reception is rare at an sporadic-e opening.
@MCSimRUS Wasn't EAst Germany using SECAM D/K, like USSR? Then,is this catch is bad, it's more likely it's a very long distance catch. What you see is a standard low reception SECAM.
the glitchy audio is probably from the signal going so wonky that the VCR doesn't know what speed the tape should be running at (control track sync pulses going bonkers)

Translation of TNS message Hello, on the air OF THE TV news service. And the first thing I'll tell you is that the political services are... You can't hear it any further. Due to poor quality and interference.
@@sonicexe7380 It was about the political instability of the USSR at the time. The Soviet army was cracking down on dissidents who rebelled against the central government while several Soviet republics unilaterally declared their independence from Moscow
I thought Ireland was late at starting up at 12pm on RTE 1 during the week (3pm during the Summer). Especially for a country with a huge population, its odd that Russian television only starts at 4pm.
It was after the launch break which was on weekdays (except Saturdays, Sundays and some state holidays) from nearly 13:00 to 16:00. The Soviet Central TV started its broadcasting at 6:30 AM from Monday to Saturday and from 8:00 AM on Sundays and state holidays
You'd expect SECAM to degrade much more gracefully due to FM capture effect. But I guess the narrow modulation of the color carrier (relative to the encoded signal) undermined this.
This was at the time when the USSR began to fall apart. The same TSN news presenter was the one who covered the news regarding the fall of the USSR including Soviet republics declaring independence from Moscow followed by military crackdowns on dissidents. It was recorded several months before the dissolution of the Soviet Union proper.
Вероятно это или реконструкция или оригинал 88 года,потому как уже с 89 заставка(фон и шрифт надписи)была другой,отсылка к каналу Олега Разумовского,у него есть оригинал(!)программы передач и окончания эфира 89 года,можете посмотреть...
