At about 1043 UTC on Tuesday, the 13th day of October 2026, I tuned in to the Voice of Turkey, broadcasting on 17670 kHz in the Northern Uzbek language.
The broadcast was coming from the 500 kW transmitter in Emirler, Turkey.

The overall reception of the Voice of Turkey very good. The signal strength was strong. There was no interference from other stations and there was only slight fading of the signal.
