Kit Kaan Witthayu Krajaisiang Yala FM 100.0MHz received in Kota Bharu, Kelantan, Malaysia



In Kota Bharu, Kelantan, Malaysia, there are a lot of Thailand radio stations are transmitted from Yala province, the receiving signals are quite clear there. Usually receivable Yala radio stations in Kota Bharu are:

1. Satthanii Witthayu Ratthasapha (Parliament Radio) FM 89.0MHz
2. Radio Thailand Yala FM 92.0MHz, FM 94.25MHz and FM 95.0MHz
3. MCOT Yala FM 102.5MHz
4. Radio Thailand Betong FM 93.0MHz

Except Radio Thailand Betong FM 93.0MHz, the Yala radio stations listed above are transmitted from Khao Pok Yo, Bannang Sata district, Yala, Thailand. For your information, Khao Pok Yo is Thailand version of Gunung Ulu Kali because the hill is located at the border between Yala and Narathiwat, the height of the hill is around 750m.

In this video, FM 100.0MHz is Kit Kaan Witthayu Krajaisiang from Yala province, but different transmissions site. The reception of FM 100.0MHz in Kota Bharu, Kelantan, Malaysia is not clear as Radio Thailand Yala FM 95.0MHz because Kit Kaan Witthayu Krajaisiang Yala FM 100.0MHz is transmitted from Khao Buyo, Bannang Sareng in Mueang Yala District, Yala, Thailand.

==Reception details of Kit Kaan Witthayu Krajaisiang Yala FM 100MHz in Kelantan, Malaysia==
- Frequency: FM 100.0MHz
- Power: 1kW
- Transmission site: Khao Buyo, Bannang Sareng, Mueang Yala district, Yala Province, Thailand
- Receiving site: Wakaf Bharu, Kota Bharu, Kelantan, Malaysia
- Distance: 109km

The height of Khao Buyo is lower than Khao Pok Yo.

This radio station was also used to air Allahyarham Tok Guru Nik Aziz (former Kelantan Menteri Besar) ceramah (speech) many years ago.

99.8MHz: Melody FM Bukit Panau
100.0MHz: Kit Kaan Witthayu Krajaisiang (Khao Buyo, Yala)

As FM 100.0MHz Yala has 200kHz frequency separation from Melody FM 99.8MHz Bukit Panau, so I assume that Kit Kaan Witthayu Krajaisiang Yala FM 100.0MHz will have adjacent channel interference from Melody FM 99.8MHz in Kota Bharu and North Kelantan, Malaysia, unless transmitted from Khao Pok Yo.

However, if FM 100.0MHz is transmitted from Khao Pok Yo, it will cause co-channel interference to RTM Ai FM 100.0MHz coverage in Gerik, Perak. For the frequency separation, Thailand NBTC and Malaysia MCMC had already agreed the minimum frequency separation between Gerik and Yala (based on Khao Pok Yo) must be 200kHz.

The frequency separation between Malaysia bordering sites and Yala does not include Khao Buyo and Tambon Sateng as they are lower height transmission sites.
