At about 1125 UTC on Tuesday the 6th day of August 2024, I tuned in to FEBC Radio, broadcasting on 13870 kHz in the Khmer language.
The signal was coming from the Bocaue 100 kW transmitter in the Philippines. (Short Wave Info 2023)

The overall reception of FEBC Radio was poor. The signal strength was good but there was severe interference from the Sound of Hope transmitting on the same frequency in the Chinese language.
