A YouTuber named HBC 101 received a Thailand Parliament Radio channel on FM 87.5MHz in Segamat, Johor, Malaysia via Sporadic E propagation.
On YouTube video, it stated FM 87.5MHz was received from Udon Thani, Thailand, but technically it was transmitted from Bangkok, not Udon Thani.
Udon Thani is much further than Bangkok. In my opinion, FM 87.5MHz that HBC 101 received in Segamat, Johor, Malaysia was from Bangkok due to higher ERP.
On Asiawaves.net, Thailand Parliament Radio operates on FM 87.5MHz in Bangkok, Ubon Ratchathani, Surat Thani, and Nakhon Ratchasima, but FM 87.5MHz Bangkok is the highest ERP which is 15.2kW.
Therefore, FM 87.5MHz is likely from Bangkok, Thailand due to its high ERP, meanwhile Udon Thani ERP is 3.4kW only.
Distance from FM 87.5MHz Phaya Thai, Bangkok (Thailand Parliament Radio transmission site) to Segamat, Johor, Malaysia is 1279km.
Another possibility is FM 87.5MHz in Segamat, Malaysia received from Surat Thani, Thailand, distance is 823km, but its ERP is only 4kW.
This FM DXing is a rare catch in Malaysia. From my DXing experience in Malaysia, the furthest radio stations that I received in Malaysia were:
1. AL-Falah Radio FM 93.8MHz from Sigli, Aceh, Indonesia received in Kuala Kedah, Malaysia.
2. Radio Boss FM 102.8MHz from Permatangsiantar, Indonesia received in Alor Setar, Kedah, Malaysia.
3. RPC FM 105.4MHz from Binjai, Indonesia received in Alor Setar, Kedah Malaysia.
4. Radio Thailand Satun FM 99.5MHz, Radio Thailand Yala FM 95.0MHz and MCOT Satun FM 93.25MHz received in Teluk Intan, Perak, Malaysia.
5. MCOT Phatthalung FM 95.75MHz received at Gunung Jerai top peak, Kedah, Malaysia.
6. Thor Por Sii (4th area army radio) Trang FM 103.0MHz received in Penang, Malaysia.
7. Radio Thailand Satun FM 99.5MHz received in Taiping, Perak, Malaysia (highway)
8. MY FM 101.1MHz Bukit Pelindung received in Putrajaya, Malaysia (SKVE Highway)
9. Mix FM 99.1MHz Gunung Pulai received in Balakong, Malaysia
10. Suria FM 96.1MHz Bukit Pelindung received in Balakong, Malaysia.
11. Minnal FM 101.1MHz Gunung Pulai received in Balakong, Malaysia.
These radio stations had distance less than 500km between transmitting and receiving locations.
