Radio was a major new technology in the 1920s, when the Communists had recently come to power.

Instead radio programs were transmitted by copper wire, using a hub and spoke system, to loudspeakers in approved listening stations, such as the "Red" corner of a factory. Due to the enormous size of the country Russia today leads in List of countries by number of television broadcast stations, the number of TV broadcast stations and repeaters.
