RUS Ny Khiva (RIW / V):

 

it is quite a long discussion, if there is/was really a russian/soviet naval station here... I will not pick up this discussion, I will just display what is listed for these callsigns (rb, 2009)

Recent research on this unknown station now points to Chaldybar, Kyrgystan (2021)

 

here is arecording of that station, which was believed to be a naval communication centre in the former Uzbekian SSR (Andy Stumpf, 1987)
2 recordings of the 'Single Letter Beacon' (SLB) "V", believed to in Khiva, this from 2015...
...and this from 2018, both from the collection of Nils Schiffhauer

no pictures of QSLs or other info available
