MY FM 101.1MHz Bukit Pelindung (Kuantan), another far distant radio station received in Balakong, Selangor, Malaysia

After I received Minnal FM 101.1MHz Gunung Pulai signal in Balakong, Selangor, Malaysia on 15th April 2020 (Tuesday) with 255km distance, today I receive another distant radio station in Balakong, Selangor.

Apart Gunung Pulai as distant transmitter site, I receive MY FM 101.1MHz from Bukit Pelindung within my housing area in Balakong, Selangor.



MY FM 101.1MHz from Bukit Pelindung mainly covers East Pahang (Kuantan, Gambang, and Pekan) and Southern Terengganu (Kemaman), but its transmission can overspill to Balakong, Selangor.

Between Balakong and Bukit Pelindung, there are many terrains including Banjaran Titiwangsa.

MY FM 101.1MHz is not my first Bukit Pelindung radio station received in Balakong, Selangor. Actually I was used to receive Bukit Pelindung transmitted radio station in Balakong, Selangor 11 years ago, first station was Ai FM 106.1MHz after Red FM closed down its Negeri Sembilan frequency 106.0MHz on June 2009. Then, I received RTM Klasik Nasional FM 107.9MHz from Bukit Pelindung in 2010 after Klasik Nasional duplicate Negeri Sembilan frequency FM 107.9MHz was shut down (exists on 87.9MHz).

   
When I realized that I received Ai FM 106.1MHz and Klasik Nasional FM 107.9MHz from Bukit Pelindung in Balakong between 2009-2011, so I decided to try receiving MY FM 101.1MHz.

In fact, I received MY FM 101.1MHz Bukit Pelindung signal since 2015, but with poor quality recording devices. Meanwhile, for today, with good quality smartphone video camera, I finally record MY FM 101.1MHz signal condition video which I receive in Balakong, Selangor.

MY FM 101.1MHz Bukit Pelindung signal in Balakong has adjacent channel interference noise from RTM Selangor FM 100.9MHz Gunung Ulu Kali and Kool FM 101.3MHz Bukit Sungai Besi.

The adjacent distance between Bukit Pelindung and Balakong is 202km. Alongside Balakong, I also received MY FM 101.1MHz at South Klang Valley Expressway (SKVE) in Putrajaya on 26th October 2018 while I was going home from Puchong to Balakong via SKVE.

As 17th April 2020, MY FM 101.1MHz is the only Bukit Pelindung radio station which received in Balakong, Selangor with very weak signal quality. Ai FM 106.1MHz and RTM Klasik Nasional FM 107.9MHz from Bukit Pelindung are no longer receivable in Balakong because the frequencies are occupied by CityPlus FM 106.0MHz Gunung Telapak Burok and Rakita FM (formerly IM4U FM) 107.9MHz Bukit Sungai Besi respectively.
