At about 1400 UTC on Saturday the 10th day of August 2024, I tuned in to the BBC World Service, broadcasting on 15310 kHz in the English language.
The signal was coming from the Al Seela 250 kW transmitter in Oman. (Short Wave Info 2023)

The overall reception of the BBC was good. The signal strength was good and there was only slight fading of the signal.
