On November 16, 2024, we celebrated the 100th anniversary of Ukrainian Radio. It was on this day in 1924 that its first program was broadcast. It was a radio concert by the Viem Violin Quartet. It was broadcast by the first Ukrainian broadcasting station, which was equipped in Kharkiv, the capital of Ukraine at the time, by a group of Ukrainian engineers and technicians under the leadership of Volodymyr Ohiievskyi, a lecturer at the Kyiv Polytechnic Institute. Later, Ogievsky led the construction and launch of similar stations in Odesa, Dnipro, Tiraspol, and other cities.

On May 10, 2010 there was 120 years since the birth of Professor Ohiyevskiy Volodymyr Vasyliovych, the founder of the Radio Engineering Faculty NTUU “Kyiv polytechnic institute”.

In 1997 I participated the European Conference of microwave equipment in Jerusalem. In the framework of cultural program I was fortunate to visit the Garden of Gethsemane, there are old oil trees which are more than 2000 years. Being in this holy place you feel in especially how fast time flies and the preservation of historical monuments of past events and their teachers has the inestimable value for future generations.
