At about 0732 UTC on Wednesday the 14th day of August 2024, I tuned in to Radio France International, broadcasting on 21580 kHz in the French language.
The signal was coming from the Issoudun 500 kW transmitter in France. (Short Wave Info 2023)

The overall reception of Radio France International was excellent. The signal strength was very strong and there was no interference from other stations.
