At about 0958 UTC on Monday, the 12th day of October 2026, I tuned in to Reach Beyond Australia, broadcasting on 11965 kHz in the Indonesian language.
The broadcast was coming from the 1 kW transmitter in Kununurra, Western Australia.

The overall reception of Reach Beyond Australia was excellent. The signal strength was very strong. There was no interference from other stations and there was only slight fading of the signal.
