Surprisingly, FM 103.0MHz Thailand radio signal is received in Taiping, Perak, Malaysia, it is transmitted from Trang province, Thailand.
The radio station is 4th Area Army Radio สถานีวิทยุกองทัพภาคที่ 4 FM 103.00 MHz ตรัง [ Satthanii Witthayu Kong Thap Phak Thi Si Changwat Trang FM 103.0MHz (Thor Por Sii 4)], operated by Royal Thai Army. Its transmitter site is located in Na Tham Nuea, the distance between Trang (Na Tham Nuea) and Taiping, Perak, Malaysia is 334km.
By listening to the audio, FM 103.0MHz is having co-channel interference between 4th Area Army Radio from Trang, Thailand and Melody FM 103.0MHz from Gunung Ulu Kali in Taiping, Perak, Malaysia. I strongly believe that Thailand radio station that received in Taiping is just tropospheric propagation condition, because FM 103.0MHz is Melody FM from Gunung Ulu Kali at most of the time.
FM 103.0MHz from Trang, Thailand can also overspill its signal to Penang, Langkawi, Alor Setar and now Taiping, it already "breaks" RTM Perlis FM 102.9MHz Padang Pauh coverage.
Apart from FM 103.0MHz Trang, another Thailand radio station named PSU Radio FM 88.0MHz is captured in Taiping, Perak, Malaysia too. PSU Radio 88 is transmitted from Khao Kho Hong, Hatyai, Thailand, the distance to Taiping is 244km. If we receive FM 88.0MHz in Taiping, Malaysia, but use cheaper radio receiver, the adjacent channel interference from One FM 87.8MHz and Hot FM 88.2MHz from Gunung Jerai will be detected.
