Champion Radio from Sungai Golok, Thailand received in Jeli, Kelantan, Malaysia, completely "lock" Kelantan FM 90.0MHz Bukit Tangki Air in Jeli outskirt area.

RTM Kelantan FM has Jeli frequency on 90.0MHz, transmitted from Bukit Tangki Air tower. Kelantan FM 90.0MHz covers only Jeli town, instead of Jeli district, the coverage is up to only 10km per radius.

 

10km away from Jeli town. FM 90.0MHz becomes Thailand radio station.

 

My friend Senn Lens caught Thailand radio station on FM 90.0MHz around Jeli-Gerik highway. This radio station is Champion Radio FM 90.0MHz, a community radio station from Sungai Golok, Thailand.


Transmitter tower is located in Pasemat sub-district, Sungai Golok district, Narathiwat Province, Thailand.


The video by Senn Lens was recorded in February 2020, and received at Kampung Batu Melintang, Jeli, Kelantan, Malaysia.  In the video, there was Caltex Batu Melintang petrol station recorded when heading from Jeli to Gerik.

 

FM 90.0MHz is Champion Radio from Sungai Golok in Kampung Batu Melintang, Jeli, Kelantan, rather than Kelantan FM from Bukit Tangki Air.

 

In terms of coverage, Champion Radio FM 90.0MHz is available in Rantau Panjang, Ayer Lanas, Pasir Mas and part of Kota Bharu, Kelantan, Malaysia.

 

Kelantan FM 90.0MHz from Bukit Tangki Air (Jeli town) suffers co-channel interference with Champion Radio FM 90.0MHz from Sungai Golok, Thailand when it is received more than 10km per radius from transmitter site, but the co-channel interference on FM 90.0MHz doesn't affect Kelantan FM's listeners because Kelantan FM can be tuned on FM 97.3MHz from Bukit Bakar alternatively in affected areas, even FM 102.9MHz from Wakaf Che Yeh.
