Furthest radio stations that I received in Fraser's Hill by transmitter sites (TOP 5)

Here are the furthest radio stations that I received in Fraser's Hill by the transmitter sites (TOP 5).


1. Sungai Golok, Narathiwat Province, Thailand (258km)

- Station name: Radio Thailand Sungai Golok FM 106.5MHz

My second location to receive Radio Thailand Sungai Golok FM 106.5MHz after Lojing Highlands in Kelantan. STEREO signal appeared when I tuned to this radio station on Jalan Semantan between Rompin Trail and Smokehouse Trail, meanwhile Zayan FM 106.4MHz from Gunung Kledang is badly interfered by this radio station on this road.


2. Bukit Besar, Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu (235km)

- Station name: Minnal FM 87.9MHz & Terengganu FM 88.7MHz

Minnal FM 87.9MHz has co-channel interference with Fly FM 87.9MHz from Gunung Kledang.


3. Bukit Bakar, Machang, Kelantan (230km)

- Station name: Nasional FM 96.5MHz, Kelantan FM 97.3MHz, Traxx FM 98.5MHz, Ai FM 99.3MHz and Minnal FM 100.9MHz

Kelantan FM 97.3MHz is the clearest radio station from Bukit Bakar in most of northern site of Fraser's Hill, from Taman Awam (nearby Fraser's Hill clinic) till Jeriau Waterfall and Sekolah Kebangsaan Bukit Fraser, but interference with Traxx FM 97.4MHz from Gunung Ledang can be detected on a slope/T-junction nearby Taman Awam.

 

Ai FM 99.3MHz has co-channel interference with THR Raaga FM 99.3MHz from Gunung Ulu Kali.


Minnal FM 100.9MHz has co-channel interference with Selangor FM 100.9MHz from Gunung Ulu Kali. Fraser's Hill is my 4th location to hear co-channel interference between Selangor FM and Minnal FM on the frequency FM 100.9MHz after Pos Blau (Gua Musang), Merapoh and Benta.


4. Gunung Ledang, Johor (178km)

- Station name: Traxx FM 97.4MHz

Adjacent channel interference with Kelantan FM 97.3MHz from Bukit Bakar can be heard nearby Taman Awam area.

 

5. Felda Paloh, Gua Musang, Kelantan (155km)

- Station name: Kelantan FM 88.1MHz and Nasional FM 90.7MHz
 

Nasional FM 90.7MHz is very clear at Jalan Semantan in Fraser's Hill with STEREO signal, meanwhile Kelantan FM 88.1MHz is having co-channel interference with 8FM 88.1MHz from Gunung Ulu Kali, but Kelantan FM 88.1MHz STEREO signal is still appeared.

 

Co-channel interference between Kelantan FM and 8FM on the frequency FM 88.1MHz happens on Jalan Semantan between Rompin Trail and Smokehouse Trail. When I was carrying my radio receiver while walking from these sites by tuning to FM 88.1MHz, both radio stations are interfering each other.


Overall, FM 88.1MHz is mostly dominated by 8FM from Gunung Ulu Kali. 8FM is a Chinese radio station operated by Media Prima Audio, formerly it was known as One FM (until July 2021).
