only operates at 0.25kW transmitter power there, while most of Bukit
Djin FM radio stations operate at 1kW and 2kW power, meanwhile its rival station Kool FM 104.3MHz is the strongest Bukit Djin transmitted radio stations in these 3 locations.
On 19th May 2025, I went to multiple locations in Sarawak for radio DXing activity, covering Simanggang, Betong, Engkilili, Spaoh, Debak, Saratok and Roban.

RTM Johor FM 101.9MHz dari Gunung Pulai yang meliputi Johor Selatan dan Johor Tengah boleh didengari di Singapura dan sebahagian kawasan Kepulauan Riau, Indonesia.
Batam dan Kariumun ialah kawasan Kepulauan Riau di Indonesia yang pendengar mengikuti siaran RTM Johor FM 101.9MHz. Pada 29hb Jun 2026, saya bercuti di Tanjungpinang, Pulau Bintan, Indonesia. Saya mencuba menerima siaran RTM Johor FM 101.9MHz di bandar tersebut.
Stesen radio RTM Johor FM 101.9MHz tidak dapat menerima di Pusat Bandaraya Tanjungpinang (Jl. Merdeka), tetapi saya hanya boleh menerima isyarat lemah di Tugu Gong Gong yang berhampiri dengan Jalan Hang Tuah.
Di kawasan sekitar Tugu Gong-Gong, RTM Johor FM 101.9MHz mempunyai gangguan isyarat frekuensi bocor daripada Radio Republik Indonesia RRI Tanjungpinang PRO-3 88.6MHz. Isyarat RRI Tanjungpinang PRO-3 FM 88.6MHz membocor ke frekuensi FM 101.8MHz.
Antara tiga buah pulau di Kepulauan Riau, Batam ialah kawasan yang paling jelas menerima siaran RTM Johor FM 101.9MHz, diikuti dengan Karimun, manakala Tanjungpinang di Pulau Bintan ialah kawasan yang paling lemah untuk mendengar siaran Johor FM.
Di sini terdapat video penerimaan siaran RTM Johor FM 101.9MHz di Kepulauan Riau yang dirakam oleh Ovifarz dan saya.
1. Batam
2. Galang
3. Tanjungpinang di Pulau Bintan
Secara keseluruhannya, RTM Johor FM 101.9MHz hanya boleh diterima di Pulau Batam dan Pulau Karimun bagi Wilayah Kepulauan Riau, Indonesia.
Selain itu, RTM Radio Klasik FM 106.7MHz dan RTM Nasional FM 105.7MHz pun diterima dengan isyarat lemah di Tanjungpinang, Indonesia (Bangunan Gong-Gong).
Generally Singapore radio stations are receivable outside Singapore such as Southern Johor in Malaysia and part of Riau Island Province in Indonesia (Batam, Bintan and Karimun).
Surprisingly, there are some Singapore radio stations tuned in Jambi city, Jambi Province, Indonesia recently by Limra DX.
I watch the Singapore radio reception videos by Limra DX on YouTube where he records them in Jambi City, Indonesia.
Total of 7 Singapore radio stations are recorded at Gentala Arasy Pedestrian Bridge in Jambi City, Indonesia.

The clearest Singapore radio stations in Jambi, Indonesia are CNA 93.8, One FM 91.3 and Warna 94.2FM. There is RDS PS text appeared on the radio receiver when tune CNA 93.8FM in Jambi, Indonesia.
Except now defunct 88.3 Jia FM and Power 98FM, all Singapore radio stations are transmitted from Bukit Batok, the receiving distance from Bukit Batok to Jambi in Indonesia is 327km.
According to Limra DX, these Singapore radio stations are tropospheric propagation in Jambi, Indonesia.
Jambi City becomes the furthest location to receive Singapore FM radio station in Indonesia.
Bravo 73 to Limra DX.

From 28th to 30th June 2026, I spend days in Tanjungpinang for my very first ever radio DXpedition activity in Indonesia. Tanjungpinang is a city located in Bintan Island, it is the capital of Riau Island Province in Indonesia.
As Tanjungpinang is the capital of Riau Island Province in Indonesia, but nobody has done any radio signal monitoring there, so I decide to take this task.
I visited Tanjungpinang, Indonesia by ferry, departing from Johor Bahru at 3.45pm (UTC+8), it takes about 3 hours 30 minutes to travel from Stulang Laut Jetty to Sri Bintan Pura Terminal.
When I reached there, the first agenda was to check in the hotel because I arrived in Tanjungpinang at 6.45pm (West Indonesia time UTC+7), then I took a dinner.
After completing this task, the second agenda was to conduct preliminary radio signal check in Tanjungpinang city center at Jl. Merdeka. At Jl. Merdeka, zero signal of Singapore and Malaysia radio stations were heard. Then, I walked to Gong Gong Building (Indonesian: Gedung Gong Gong) at Jl.Hang Tuah to conduct further radio signal monitoring activity. Initially, there were zero signals of Singapore and Malaysia radio stations in the vicinity of Gong Gong Building, but I tried to go upstairs and tuned them. I had captured weak signal of Singapore and Malaysia radio stations.
During the first day at Gong Gong Building, I could only receive two Malaysia radio stations Traxx FM 102.9MHz and Johor FM 101.9MHz, meanwhile the rest stations were zero signal. Next, I tried it again on second day by going to Gong Gong Building again in the morning, I started to receive more Malaysia radio stations signal.
Singapore radio stations were tuned weakly at Gong Gong Building. Due to copyright restriction where some of the radio stations were playing non-stop music on Sunday night, I couldn't record the videos of several radio stations, so I carried forward on second day.
Malaysia radio stations are transmitted from Gunung Pulai which mainly covers South Johor and Singapore.
Singapore radio stations are transmitted from Bukit Batok.
Here are the videos of Malaysia, Singapore, and Batam radio stations received weakly in Tanjungpinang, Indonesia.

==NOTES==
1. Suria FM 101.4MHz from Gunung Pulai is not receivable in Tanjungpinang, Indonesia due to RRI Tanjungpinang PRO-4 FM 101.3MHz.
2. Melody FM 98.4MHz from Gunung Pulai is not receivable in Tanjungpinang due to RRI Tanjungpinang PRO-1 FM 98.3MHz.
3. Kiss 92FM is the only Singapore radio station unavailable in Tanjungpinang due to RRI Tanjungpinang PRO-2 FM 92.1MHz.
4. Zayan FM 92.8MHz, IKIM FM 106.2MHz, Hitz FM 97.6MHz and Best FM 104.1MHz from Gunung Pulai are zero signal in Tanjungpinang.
5. RTM Minnal FM 101.1MHz from Gunung Pulai has no signal in Tanjungpinang, Indonesia, instead adjacent channel interference noise of RRI Tanjungpinang PRO-4 FM 101.3MHz.
In conclusion, Singapore, Malaysia and Batam radio stations are mostly zero signals in most of Tanjungpinang City, Indonesia, but Gong Gong Building area is the only best location to capture the radio signal from Singapore, Malaysia and Batam radio stations, but weak signal reception. Batam Island is the best location of Riau Islands Province in Indonesia to tune Singapore and Malaysia FM radio stations loudly and clearly, while Tanjungpinang in Bintan Island is the distant coverage of Singapore, Batam and Malaysia FM radio stations.
A movie version of Malaysia, Singapore and Batam radio stations signal monitoring video in Tanjungpinang, Indonesia is released today with 36 minutes and 32 seconds duration.

After receiving the radio stations signal from Singapore and Gunung Pulai, Malaysia, Limra DX also managed to receive few Malaysia FM radio stations from Gunung Ledang in Jambi City, Indonesia, he tuned Kool FM 88.1MHz, IKIM FM 89.5MHz and 988 FM 98.2MHz.
Kool FM 88.1MHz is the strongest Gunung Ledang transmitted Malaysia radio stations in Jambi City, Jambi Province, Indonesia, but IKIM FM 89.5MHz is the weakest station there.
988 FM 98.2MHz has adjacent channel interference with Jambi local radio station Diaz FM 98.4MHz in Jambi City, Indonesia due to 200kHz frequency separation.
The distance between Gunung Ledang and Jambi City, Indonesia is 454km. Same as Gunung Pulai and Singapore radio stations, the Malaysia radio stations from Gunung Ledang in Jambi City, Indonesia are also tropospheric propagation.
In previous article, I have shared about Singapore radio stations reception in Jambi, Indonesia. Generally, Malaysia radio stations from Gunung Pulai (Johor Bahru) are also available in Singapore, then Riau Islands Province of Indonesia such as Batam, Bintan and Karimun, but Gunung Pulai transmitted Malaysia radio stations are also received in Jambi City, the capital of Jambi Province, Indonesia by Limra DX.
Limra DX has managed to tune Hot FM 90.1MHz and Sinar FM 87.8MHz in Jambi City, Indonesia today, videos are recorded at Gentala Arasy Pedestrian Bridge in Jambi.
Compare between both radio stations, Sinar FM 87.8MHz is loud and clear there, but Hot FM 90.1MHz is very weak. According to the video description by Limra DX, both Malaysia radio stations are also tropospheric propagation.
The receiving distance between Gunung Pulai and Jambi City in Indonesia is 355km. Same as Singapore radio stations, Jambi City is also the furthest location in Indonesia to receive Malaysia radio stations from Gunung Pulai.
Excellent radio reception by Limra DX in Jambi, Indonesia. Well-done!
