Kelantan FM 97.3MHz from Bukit Bakar received in Langkawi, Kedah

 

Back to November 2021, I received RTM Kelantan FM on 97.3MHz from Bukit Bakar in certain areas of Pahang state such as Cameron Highlands, Benta, and Merapoh. 

 

The furthest location where I received Kelantan FM 97.3MHz was in Benta with 190km distance.

 

Two weeks ago during Chinese New Year eve, a DXer named Sarawut DXers captured this radio station in Langkawi, Kedah where it is further than mine.

 

The actual receiving location is at Gunung Raya top peak in Langkawi Island, Kedah, but the signal is under tropospheric propagation.

 

No interference from any adjacent stations was detected so far, despite there are Sinar FM 97.1MHz and Kedah FM 97.5MHz operating in Gunung Jerai for Mainland Kedah (97km from Langkawi).

 

- Frequency: FM 97.3MHz

- Power: 2kW 

- Transmission site: Bukit Bakar, Machang, Kelantan

- Receiving site: Gunung Raya top peak, Langkawi Island, Kedah

- Distance: 282km
