At about 1200 UTC on Tuesday, the 10th day of June 2025, I tuned in to KNLS Alaska, broadcasting on 9795 kHz in the English language.
The signal was coming from the 100 kW transmitter in Anchor Point. (Short Wave Info 2024)

The overall reception of KNLS was good. The signal strength was good, and there was slight interference from stations on adjacent frequencies. There were slight static crashes on the band from local storms here in Australia. There was no fading of the signal.
