At about 0602 UTC on Saturday, the 5th day of July 2025, I tuned in to Vatican Radio broadcasting on 15595 kHz in the Italian/Arabic language.

The signal was coming from the 250 kW transmitter in Santa Maria Di Galeria, Vatican. The target audience was the Middle East. (Short Wave Info 2024) (WRTH 2025)

The overall reception of Vatican Radio was good.
