Heard at S9 +20 strength on my Tecsun PL-660 receiver, 30 ft wire antenna, live sports coverage in English - always exciting to listen to!

I'm getting nothing here on 17640 now (1710z) but they might have signed off that frequency.  However, I'm getting a fair signal on 15400z and what you are hearing is the highlight match of the weekend - Liverpool at Manchester United with the visiting squad up 0-1.  Glad they skipped the Man City disaster earlier today  >:(
