At about 1205 UTC on Wednesday the 7th day of August 2024, I tuned in to China Radio International, broadcasting on 9760 kHz in the English language.
The signal was coming from the Kunming-anning 500kW transmitter in China. (Short Wave Info 2023)

The overall reception of China Radio International was excellent. The signal strength was very strong. There was no fading of the signal. There was no interference from other stations on the same frequency or on adjacent frequencies.
