CH707: Hot FM

CH708: Kool FM

CH709: Fly FM

CH710: One FM


For Kool FM, the last coverage expansion was 104.3MHz Kuching in 2017, and no more coverage expansion after since that. Technically, Kool FM is now available nationwide including Johor, Perak, Pahang, Melaka, Negeri Sembilan and Sabah technically via MYTV DTT platform, where these states have no Kool FM frequencies on radio.


Meanwhile Fly FM is technically available in Kota Kinabalu and Kuching on MYTV digital terrestrial TV where these two locations have no Fly FM.


One FM is technically available in Kota Bharu and Terengganu on MYTV digital terrestrial TV where One FM has no FM radio frequencies there.


As FM radio frequencies are fully occupied nowadays in Peninsular Malaysia (except Kuala Terengganu and Kuantan), so MYTV digital terrestrial television is part of platform to bypass frequency transmission, alongside mobile app and online streaming platform.


Radio on MYTV platform is also digital audio broadcasting, but on TV, somewhat known as DVB-T2 radio. The limitation is outdoor listening, because people cannot listen to Kool FM in the car or outdoor on DVB-T2 platform, unless they have DVB-T2 interface in the car for car audio system.
