If Astro decides to expand Gegar coverage to Western Pahang by locating transmitter in Fraser's Hill on 107.9MHz, so FM 107.9MHz could be divided into two radio stations within central region and Western Pahang, but totally different areas served. Rakita serves Klang Valley, meanwhile Gegar serves Western Pahang.
Between 2010 and 2013, FM 107.9MHz was vacant frequency in Klang Valley and Negeri Sembilan after Klasik Nasional closed down its duplicate Gunung Telapak Burok transmitter when its original FM 87.9MHz from Gunung Telapak Burok was fully upgraded with 2kW transmitter.
So, here is the timeline of FM 107.9MHz with adding Gegar Bukit Fraser suggestion:
Negeri FM RTM Seremban>>Klasik Nasional Gunung Telapak Burok>>IM4U FM Bukit Sungai Besi>> Rakita Bukit Sungai Besi + Gegar Bukit Fraser
Negeri Sembilan (RTM Negeri FM and Klasik Nasional)>>Kuala Lumpur (Rakita fka IM4U FM) + Western Pahang (Gegar)
