At about 1520 UTC on Wednesday the 14th day of August 2024, I tuned in to Radio Cairo, broadcasting on 9410 kHz in the Albanian language.
The signal was coming from the Abis 125 kW transmitter in Egypt. (Short Wave Info 2023)

The overall reception of Radio Cairo was fair. The signal strength was fair and there was moderate fading of the signal. There were moderate static crashes on the band.
