Originally from Wow FM to Hot FM, the station's Kota Kinabalu frequency since 1998 is FM 87.7MHz from Bukit Karatong site. When Media Prima acquired Wow FM and ntv7 in 2005, then rebranded Wow FM to Hot FM as Malay language contemporary hot radio to compete Era from Astro Radio, the frequency in Kota Kinabalu is originally 87.7MHz.
I don't know that when Hot FM did change its Kota Kinabalu frequency. I recently traveled to Kota Kinabalu because of company project in Lawas, Sarawak, after I landed in Kota Kinabalu and performed radio scan, I realized that Hot FM is on FM 87.5MHz in Kota Kinabalu and Papar. This is considered as first Malaysia radio station to use 87.5MHz as previously none of them were assigned to that frequency (due to interfering to other band).
As November 2019, Hot FM operates in Kota Kinabalu on the frequency FM 87.5MHz, it is no longer operating in Kota Kinabalu on 87.7MHz. Since the frequency change, when listeners are in Kota Kinabalu, they need to tune Hot FM on 87.5MHz, not 87.7MHz.
Hot FM frequency in Kota Kinabalu is FM 87.5MHz.
