TP4 FM (Thor Por Sii) 103.0MHz Trang is the furthest Thailand radio station received in Georgetown, Penang, Malaysia

Georgetown is the perfect location in Penang state to receive many distant FM radio stations, including Thailand. For Malaysia, the furthest radio station that I receive in Georgetown was Melody FM 103.0MHz from Gunung Ulu Kali on November 2017.

In Georgetown, I usually receive Thailand radio stations from Yala, Satun, and Betong, also Songkhla (Hat Yai) at top peak of Penang Hill. Songkhla (Hat Yai) is not the furthest Thailand radio station received in Georgetown, in fact the furthest Thailand FM radio station received in Georgetown is from Trang province.

It is considered very rare to receive Thailand FM radio station from Trang. A YouTuber named Senn Lens uploaded a footage of receiving Thailand radio station on FM 103.0MHz at the roof top parking of Prangin Mall, it is Thor Por Sii Trang (TP4 FM), also known as Satthanii Witthayu Krajiasiang Kong Thap Phak Thi Sii Changwat Trang สถานีวิทยุกองทัพภาคที่ 4 จังหวัดตรัง (4th Army Area radio station Trang province), operated by Royal Thai Army. Here is the footage:

According to the footage that he recorded, although the signal is weak, but there is no adjacent channel interference (ACI) from RTM Perlis FM 102.9MHz Padang Pauh transmitter. It is very impressive.

Georgetown is the third Penang location where Thor Por Sii Trang FM 103.0MHz signal is captured after Tasek Gelugor and Bukit Tambun (14100 Simpang Ampat).
