At about 1215 UTC on Wednesday the 14th day of August 2024, I tuned in to WWCR, broadcasting on 7490 kHz in the English language.
The signal was coming from the Nashville 100 kW transmitter in the USA. (Short Wave Info 2023)

The overall reception of WWCR was excellent. The signal strength was very strong and there was no fading of the signal. There was no interference from other stations.
