DISCLAIMER: Blog article regarding my suggestion of FM radio frequencies. Misleading frequency information on Malaysia radio stations' Wikipedia.

Recently there is much of misleading information on selected Malaysia FM radio stations on Wikipedia, especially frequencies list section. I was informed by my friends about that, and hereby I would like thank to my friends for informing me about this matter. I'm Philip Yong, the owner of Philip DXing Log noted this misleading frequency information on Wikipedia seriously.

Bernama Radio Wikipedia

goXUAN Wikipedia

Kool FM Wikipedia

Raaga Wikipedia

Zayan Wikipedia

Above all the screenshots, those Wikipedia edits are badly misleading to the public enough. Let me to make clarifications by radio station. 

Raaga is a Malaysia Tamil radio station by Astro Radio. Due to license condition, currently it is available in West Coast of Peninsular Malaysia only, meanwhile East Coast is dominated by Gegar. Back to 2013, I suggested Astro Radio to expand coverage for Raaga in Kuantan only, but I was informed that Astro Radio would not make such suggestion due to license restrictions and market condition. 

About the misleading frequencies information on Raaga, Bernama Radio, goXUAN, CityPlus FM and Zayan's Wikipedia, most of the frequencies can cause heavy interference to existing radio stations. I believe such Wikipedia editor who did these all never performed frequencies studies and took into other considerations.

In terms of technical aspects, I strongly the particular user who edited these Wikipedia article never takes frequency planning study, interference study, border coordination study and marketing into considerations.

==Bernama Radio==

* 88.6MHz Kedah, Perlis, Penang: Cause interference to Traxx FM Bukit Genting 88.5MHz, Kedah FM Bukit Sungai Kecil 88.5MHz, and Radio Klasik FM 88.7MHz Bukit Palong

* 105.7MHz Ipoh: Depends on which transmission site located at, but if it is located in Gunung Kledang, it would cause interference to Lite FM 105.7MHz Gunung Ulu Kali

* 103.5MHz Taiping: Bad interference to Radio Klasik FM 103.3MHz Bukit Larut which covers Taiping

* 89.1MHz Kuantan: Interference to Radio Klasik FM 89.2MHz Bukit Sulai in Pekan, Gambang

* 106.4MHz Kuala Terengganu: OK

* 95.7MHz Kota Bharu: Interference to Radio KIasik FM 95.5MHz Bukit Bakar

* 93.5MHz Seremban: Interference to 988 FM 93.3MHz Gunung Telapak Burok and Radio Klasik FM 93.6MHz Gunung Ledang

* 88.9MHz Melaka/North Johor: Interference to BBC World Service Singapore and Traxx FM 88.7MHz Gunung Telapak Burok because Traxx FM 88.7 has separation from Suria FM 88.5MHz Gunung Ledang

==goXUAN==

*107.6 MHz Kedah, Perlis, Penang: Current goXUAN FM 107.6MHz is from Bukit Penara for Penang, South Kedah, and North perak only. Not include Alor Setar and Perlis. It would cause interference to Kool FM Alor Setar 107.3MHz, Minnal FM 107.5MHz Bukit Dedap coverage badly.

* 97.0MHz Ipoh and Taiping?: Interference to Sinar FM 96.9MHz Gunung Kledang. On Malay Wikipedia, 97.3MHz Ipoh can cause interference to Perak FM 97.3MHz Changkat Rembian

* 95.5MHz Kuantan: Interference to Pahang FM 95.5MHz Bukit Sulai in Pekan, Gambang

* 103.6MHz Kuala Terengganu: OK

* 101.3MHz Kota Bharu: Interference to Radio KIasik FM 101.1MHz Wakaf Che Yeh and Golok FM 101.5MHz

* 93.5MHz Melaka/North Johor: Interference to Radio Klasik FM 93.6MHz Gunung Ledang

* 88.5MHz Kota Kinabalu: Not OK, due to interference to Labuan 88.5MHz

* 100.5MHz Kuching: Sounds ok.

goXUAN is only available in Klang Valley on FM 88.9MHz and Penang on FM 107.6MHz. No other locations are expanded due to its license conditions.

==RAAGA==

* 105.7MHz Kuantan: OK

* 95.2MHz Kuala Terengganu: Interference to Minnal FM 95.3MHz Bukit Bintang in Setiu and Besut

* 103.7MHz Kota Bharu: Interference to Narathiwat FM 103.75MHz

Raaga has no plan to expand coverage to east coast as the region is not its market.

==ZAYAN==

Same condition as goXUAN. Other than current 6 frequencies (104.9/106.4/98.1/91.6/98.9/92.8) which carried formerly by Red FM, Zayan never plans to expand to other locations due to license conditions.

Its existing frequency FM 106.4MHz Ipoh and Taiping is misleading, FM 106.4MHz is for Ipoh only, excluding Taiping. In Taiping, it is very difficult to receive Ipoh FM radio stations due to big mountains of Gunung Bubu nearby Terong. To listen to Zayan in Taiping, its frequency is FM 98.1MHz from Gunung Jerai, not FM 106.4MHz Gunung Kledang!

* 103.1MHz Kuala Terengganu: Interference with Era FM 102.8MHz Bukit Besar.

* 100.9MHz Kota Bharu: Interference to Radio KIasik FM 101.1MHz Wakaf Che Yeh and Minnal FM Bukit Bakar FM 100.9MHz

==CityPlus FM==

The Malaysia first Chinese business radio station is only available in Seremban (106.0MHz) and Kuching (92.5MHz), but it is available in Central Pahang, part of Selangor/Kuala Lumpur/Melaka/Johor on FM 106.0MHz transmitted from Gunung Telapak Burok.

* 106.0MHz Kedah and Perlis: Interference to Ai FM 106.1MHz Bukit Larut, Traxx FM 105.9MHz Bukit Dedap (Sik, Kedah)/UUM Sintok and VR Radio FM 106.0MHz (Danok, Thailand)
* 106.0MHz Kuala Terengganu: Interference to Lite FM 105.9MHz Bukit Besar
* 106.0MHz Johor Bahru: Interference to IKIM FM 106.2MHz Gunung Pulai
* 103.0MHz Penang: Interference to Perlis FM 102.9MHz Padang Pauh and IKIM FM 102.7MHz Bukit Genting
* 103.0MHz Ipoh: Interference to IKIM FM 102.7MHz Gunung Kledang and Melody FM 103.0MHz Gunung Ulu Kali
* 103.0MHz Kuantan: Interference to Minnal FM 103.3MHz Bukit Pelindung
* 103.0MHz Kota Bharu: Interference to Kelantan FM 102.9MHz Wakaf Che Yeh

CityPlus FM never plans to expand its coverage in these such areas above due to market condition.

==KOOL FM==

102.1MHz Seremban, 100.9MHz Melaka/North Johor, 94.9MHz Ipoh, and 105.7MHz Taiping. My information on previous blog article in 2015/16 was taken and copied on Wikipedia without my knowledge, those information on my blog article is not official and just a personal suggestion (in general way), somehow the frequency is expired.

* 102.1MHz Seremban: No longer suitable because interference with Pahang FM 102.2MHz Bukit Fraser (spotted since October 2018)
* 94.9MHz Ipoh: Not suitable because interference to Radio Klasik Gunung Jerai FM 94.9MHz coverage in Kedah 
* 87.5MHz Johor Bahru: Not suitable because of Batam FM 87.6MHz, but depends on which site that broadcaster uses.
* 104.0MHz Langkawi: None of radio stations from Media Prima enters to Langkawi market due to no commercial value condition. In addition, FM 104.0MHz will cause interference to Border Patrol Police radio station FM 104.0MHz in Songkhla province.

When I read these Wikipedia article, to avoid public from misunderstanding about it, I removed these misleading articles immediately. In addition, no such official announcements are made by radio stations. Wikipedia is not a platform to make fake news, fake articles, misleading information or mimic somebody. 

Next, come to Kool FM. Currently it has 6 frequencies in service, 101.3MHz Kuala Lumpur, 90.2MHz Penang, 93.6MHz Kuala Terengganu, 88.6MHz Kota Bharu, 107.3MHz Alor Setar, and 104.3MHz Kuching. No any further frequencies announcements are made by Kool FM. Yes, I found that someone was using my information to write on Kool FM Wikipedia frequency section with a remark "COMING SOON", but I removed them immediately because those information are false.

* 102.1MHz: Seremban
* 100.9MHz: Melaka/North Johor
* 94.9MHz: Ipoh and Central Perak
* 105.7MHz: Taiping and North Perak

For everyone's attention, the frequencies above such as 102.1MHz, 100.9MHz, 94.9MHz and 105.7MHz were used to be published on my blog in late 2015 till 2018 regarding my opinion and suggestion for Kool FM personally. 

The frequencies above were totally unofficial, they were just my personal proposal and opinion, I did not get any information from somebody within the broadcaster company. Those frequencies that were listed, based on basic frequency scanning in my location by using radio receiver, but other considerations were not fully included yet such as interference and transmission parameters. 

In this article, I include RF analysis to answer the user who publish fraud information on Zayan, goXUAN, Bernama Radio, CityPlus FM Wikipedia.

I work within broadcast industry (selling broadcast equipment). Frequency study and interference analysis are mandatory processes when propose frequency parameter in an area. It is not easy to do such thing, as it takes many considerations. For the frequencies assignment, the final decision is done by MCMC, not broadcasters.

As the blog articles on Philip DXing Log regarding unofficial frequency suggestions opinion, I will not tolerate to people who misuse my articles on official platform such as Wikipedia, I remove them from Wikipedia in order to public interest. 

I respect people's decision to publish their thoughts on social media platform such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Blogger and Instagram, but not on Wikipedia. 

Wikipedia is not a platform to put misleading content, and mimic somebody.

If someone would like to use and share my article, I would definitely welcome them, but never use my article on Wikipedia without permission.

I fully respect everyone's thoughts and opinions as I emphasized on freedom of speech, but I never allow to use unofficial information on official platform. Sharing opinion each other is not stupid and wrong, but it is depended on right situation, right place and right time to do so.
