ABC Northern Tasmania is a local radio station based in Launceston, its main target coverage is the northern part of Tasmania state, however a Melbourne based radio DXer, named VKS2WL managed to tune ABC Northern Tasmania in Greater Melbourne, VIC on various FM frequencies, however these radio reception were tropospheric propagation.
1. FM 91.7MHz - Launceston (TX: Mount Barrow)
Receiving distance: Approximately 450-470km
2. FM 91.3MHz - Lileah (TX: Willis Hill)
Distance: Approximately 367km
3. FM 106.3MHz - Rosebery (TX: Mount Read)
Distance: Approximately 470km
4. FM 88.5MHz - King Island (TX: Gentle Annie)
Distance: Approximately 258km. Weak signal with adjacent channel interference from 3SCB Southern FM 88.3MHz.
Most of the videos were recorded in Westmeadows, an suburb town of Melbourne, VIC. Among all 4 frequencies, FM 91.3MHz from Lileah was the clearest, following by FM 91.7MHz from Launceston, but FM 106.3MHz from Rosebery was the weakest frequency in Melbourne.
In Melbourne City, ABC Radio is locally available by following stations below:
* Radio National AM 621kHz
* ABC Melbourne AM 774kHz
* News Radio AM 1026kHz
* Classic FM 105.9MHz
* Triple J FM 107.5MHz
During nighttime transmission after sunset, ABC Hobart AM 936kHz from Tasmania can be received in Melbourne.
In Australia, alongside online streaming platform, the TV and radio stations can be accessed through C-band satellite from MEASAT-3d and ABS-2.
People's in Australia can access these channels by installing C-band receiving satellite dish and DVB-S2X receiver with the following C-band frequencies and channels below from Lyngsat:
Malaysia's MYTV C-band TV and radio channels via ABS-2 satellite are using DVB-S2X standard which is an extended version of DVB-S2, meanwhile RTM radio stations via Measat-3D are using DVB-S2 standard.
Based on the C-band coverage, Measat-3D and ABS-2 satellite signal still can reach Australia, except Tasmania where is an island state. Hence, the Malay community in Katanning of Western Australia state and Cocos (Keeling) Islands can receive Malaysia TV and radio stations via C band satellite.
Note: Several channels may not be accessible due to encryption.
The main function of using C-band satellite transmission by RTM Malaysia via Measat-3d is to send the signal feeds from broadcasting houses (studio) to the transmitter sites, notably remote area.
In June 2025, RTM Asyik FM upgraded its Gunung Ledang transmitter system 95.6MHz, this allows Asyik FM to reach more areas in Negeri Sembilan, together with 102.5MHz Gunung Ulu Kali transmitter.
Before the transmitter system upgrade, Asyik FM 95.6MHz was currently available in Gemas, Gemencheh, Rompin, Kuala Pilah, Batu Kikir, Bandar Seri Jempol and Bahau with weaker signal because it focused Segamat area in Johor only.
After Asyik FM 95.6MHz Gunung Ledang transmitter was upgraded in June 2025, it is clearer than before in Gemas, Gemencheh, Rompin, Kuala Pilah, Bahau, Bandar Seri Jempol and Batu Kikir, but it can reach even more areas in Negeri Sembilan such as Simpang Pertang, Simpang Durian, Johol, and Kuala Klawang.
For Seremban, Rembau, Nilai and Port Dickson, Asyik FM can be tuned moderately and weakly via 102.5MHz (Gunung Ulu Kali) or 91.1MHz (Kuala Lumpur Tower).
On 31st December 2025, I managed to record the radio signal videos of Asyik FM in new locations of Negeri Sembilan by following below:
1. Kuala Klawang
2. Simpang Pertang
3. Simpang Durian
Technically, Asyik FM 95.6MHz Gunung Ledang transmitter can reach Jelebu, Negeri Sembilan nowadays, but it is not clear as 102.5MHz. I believe that RTM Asyik FM 95.6MHz is using non-directional antenna in Gunung Ledang, but retaining its transmitter power at 0.25kW, so it can reach more areas in Negeri Sembilan, Pahang and part of Melaka, despite it mainly targets North Johor.
FM 95.6MHz is now available in Gemas, Jempol, Kuala Pilah and Jelebu, Negeri Sembilan.
Asyik FM can be tuned on 102.5MHz and 95.6MHz in Jelebu District, Negeri Sembilan nowadays.
In Simpang Pertang, Simpang Durian and Peradong, 102.5MHz is clearer than 95.6MHz.
Asyik FM 95.6MHz is very clear in Jempol, Negeri Sembilan, comparing with 102.5MHz, but both 95.6MHz and 102.5MHz are clear in Bahau, Negeri Sembilan.
Asyik FM also can be tuned in Johol moderately on 95.6MHz nowadays.
From 2019 to 2025, I also recorded several videos of tuning Asyik FM on 102.5, 91.1 and 95.6 in Negeri Sembilan.
1. Seremban
2. Port Dickson
3. Kuala Pilah
4. Linggi
5. Bandar Seri Jempol
6. Mantin
7. Bahau
8. Rantau
9. Rompin
10. Air Kuning Selatan (near Gemencheh and Batang Melaka)
Generally Gunung Ledang radio transmitter mainly covers Melaka and North Johor, but RTM Johor FM 105.3MHz only covers North Johor areas like Tangkak, Muar, Segamat and North Batu Pahat, so this causes Johor FM 105.3MHz to have co-channel interference from Suria FM Gunung Ulu Kali transmitter in Melaka and Negeri Sembilan badly.
When Suria FM and Johor FM are interfering each other on FM 105.3MHz in Melaka and Negeri Sembilan, Suria FM can be tuned on 88.5MHz (Gunung Ledang) and 107.0MHz (Gunung Telapak Buruk), meanwhile Johor FM has no alternative frequency because Melaka and Negeri Sembilan are not its targeting coverage.
From 2016 to 2025, I managed to record the videos of co-channel interference radio signal of Suria FM and RTM Johor FM on the frequency 105.3MHz in Melaka and Negeri Sembilan.
MYTV DTT (Digital Terrestrial Television) transmitter in Bukit Temudok mainly covers Sri Aman (Simanggang), Lingga, Engkilili, Betong, Spaoh, Lachau and Pantu.
Lubok Antu is likely a blindspot coverage of MYTV DTT transmitter from Bukit Temudok, but technically it's not at all by looking at the official coverage map of MYTV DTT transmitters.
According to the coverage map, there is still having the coverage of MYTV DTT transmitter from Bukit Temudok in Lubok Antu, Sarawak, except Batang Ai area.
The signal of MYTV DTT transmitter from Bukit Temudok is likely unstable in certain locations of Lubok Antu, Sarawak, the viewers need to use at least 14e outdoor antenna to receive a stable signal of DTT service
No coverage in Batang Ai.
MYTV Bukit Temudok DTT transmitter can reach until Indonesia border (Badau, West Kalimantan Province).
To access MYTV digital terrestrial television signal in Lubok Antu, Sarawak, outdoor antenna is the minimum requirement by pointing the direction to northwest towards Bukit Temudok transmitter.
Distance from Bukit Temudok to Lubok Antu is 45km.
* RTM Radio Klasik FM 107.3MHz Bukit Temudok (45km)
* RTM Nasional FM 98.9MHz Bukit Temudok (45km)/97.0MHz Lubok Antu
* RTM Sarawak FM 100.3MHz Bukit Temudok (45km)/98.4MHz Lubok Antu
* RTM Traxx FM 103.8MHz Bukit Temudok (45km)
* RTM Ai FM 106.3MHz Bukit Temudok (45km)
* RTM Red FM 106.3MHz Bukit Temudok (45km)
* RTM Sri Aman FM 89.5MHz Bukit Temudok (45km)
* Cats FM 88.7MHz Bukit Temudok (45km)
Lubok Antu is located in the south-easternmost of Sri Aman Division, Sarawak, it is not far from Indonesia border.
Note: Despite Lubok Antu is not far from Indonesia border (West Kalimantan), Radio Republik Indonesia RRI Sintang stations (PRO-1 on FM 102.5MHz, PRO-2 on FM 90.7MHz and PRO-3 on FM 96.6MHz) are not likely receivable in Lubok Antu, Sarawak, Malaysia due to terrain. In addition, it is still far between Lubok Antu and Sintang. No guarantee of RRI Sintang PRO-1 FM 95.9MHz Badau repeater can be tuned in Lubok Antu, Sarawak.
Only 8 radio stations are available in Belaga town, Sarawak, the coverage is limited in Belaga town and surrounding areas. None of distant (DX) radio stations can be detected in Belaga.
Note: Belaga transmitted radio stations have no signal in Sungai Asap.
