A year ago, there was a DXer receiving Radio Thailand Yala FM 95.0MHz (Pattani Malay radio station) in Lojing Highlands, Kelantan, Malaysia. The footage was recorded at Masjid Keputeraan Lojing (English: Lojing Mosque).
Between 14th and 17th November 2021, I traveled to Gua Musang actually, then I included my trip to Lojing and Cameron Highlands.
I watched the video above previously, so I planned to expand FM DXing activities in Lojing by receiving more Thailand radio stations.
I received Radio Thailand Yala FM 92.0MHz, FM 94.25MHz and FM 95.0MHz in Lojing Highlands, Kelantan, Malaysia. Receiving site was located at Masjid Keputeraan Lojing.
Lojing is located nearby Cameron Highlands, Pahang.
Alongside Radio Thailand Yala FM 92.0MHz, FM 94.25MHz and FM 95.0MHz, I also tried to receive other Thailand radio stations in Lojing, Kelantan.
MCOT Yala FM 102.5MHz is receivable there, but signal is not clear, meanwhile Thailand Parliament Radio FM 89.0MHz is not receivable there because it is interfered by Radio Klasik FM 89.1MHz from Gunung Brinchang.
I tried to receive any Thailand radio stations from Narathiwat, Betong, Sungai Padi, Sungai Golok and Pattani, no signal were available in Lojing, Kelantan.
However, Masjid Lojing is the best location to receive Radio Thailand Yala (92.0/94.25/95.0) and MCOT Yala 102.5 on FM radio frequencies, but these Thai radio stations signal went unstable and faded when going downhill to Pos Brooke.
Thailand radio stations are no longer receivable in Pos Brooke, even no signal after stepping into Pahang border (Blue Valley, Cameron Highlands).
FM 92.0MHz and FM 94.25MHz broadcast in Thai language, meanwhile FM 95.0MHz is in Pattani Malay (Bahasa Melayu Pattani). Actually Radio Thailand Yala FM 95.0MHz is very popular in North Kelantan, alongside Kelantan FM, Manis FM and Gegar.
