Just as in television, there are state-owned and independent radio stations in 

Uzbekistan. The State Radio has FM, medium-wave and short-wave transmissions. 

The State Radio has four channels, each with its own specialty: Channel 1 

("Uzbekistan") is the most important channel, paralleling Uzbek TV 1 in its 

programming (frequencies; LW, MW, SW, FM); Radio Channel 2, popularly 

known as "Mashal" (MW and FM), is directed to the youth and has more 

entertainment programs than others. Radio Channel 3, known as "Dostlik" (MW 

and FM) focuses on the minorities in the country; Radio Channel 4, known as 

"Yoshlar" (MW and FM), is directed toward the youth. Yet another government-

owned radio station, "Radio Tashkent" broadcasts on a short-wave to numerous 

countries in 12 languages.  

There are seven FM radio stations in the capital city of Tashkent, one independent 

station that covers the three provinces of Ferghana, Andijan, and Namanghan. Five 

out of those in Tashkent are independent, Radio Grande (FM-101.5 MHZ) being 

the most popular among them. It was established in 1999 with substantial 

assistance from the Konrad Adenauer Foundation in Germany and the International 

Center for the Training of Journalists. It has one-hour programs in Russian, Uzbek, 

and English every day and besides music, it broadcasts hourly news—  local, 

national, and international. Among the other private FM stations is radio Sezum, an 

Uzbek-US joint venture.
