It is quite common when Thailand radio stations can be received in Malaysia bordering areas nearby Thailand such as Perlis, Kedah, Penang, Hulu Perak and Kelantan, but there is no report of receiving Thailand FM radio stations in Terengganu state so far.
I received a message from my friend who traveled to Kuala Terengganu yesterday, and he informed me that he could receive Radio Thailand Sungai Golok FM 106.5MHz in Kuala Terengganu.
My friend who is also Kelantan based DXer claimed that Radio Thailand Sungai Golok FM 106.5MHz receiving signal is quite clear, compare to other radio stations from Kelantan state.
The video of receiving Radio Thailand Sungai Golok FM 106.5MHz was filmed at Pasar Payang in Kuala Terengganu, Malaysia.
The signal quality was moderate with medium static, no interference from local radio stations is found.
- Frequency: FM 106.5MHz
- Power: 5kW
- Transmission site: Sungai Golok District, Narathiwat Province, Thailand
- Receiving site: Pasar Payang, Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu, Malaysia
- Distance: 151km
Thanks to my friend, Ahmad Mustakimi for sharing me the video.
Officially Radio Thailand Sungai Golok FM 106.5MHz also claims that the radio station can be heard in Kelantan, Terengganu and Perlis on its website.
About Radio Thailand Sungai Golok FM 106.5MHz in Perlis, I don't think it is available in Perlis because Melody FM is using that frequency in Gunung Jerai, but before FM 106.5MHz Gunung Jerai radio broadcast (Xfresh from 2004-2012, then Melody FM) in 2004, Radio Thailand Sungai Golok FM 106.5MHz could be heard in part of Perlis state.
For Terengganu, I think Radio Thailand Sungai Golok FM 106.5MHz can be received clearer in Kuala Besut, Kampung Raja, Jerteh, Permaisuri and Setiu. It is considered strong when it can be tuned in Kuala Terengganu.
Meanwhile other Sungai Golok based Thailand radio stations (Champion Radio FM 90.0MHz, Kolok FM 101.5MHz, True Love Kolok Radio FM 94.0MHz, SV Sound Radio FM 107.0MHz) are not receivable in Kuala Terengganu, Malaysia as they are low power community radio stations (transmission power: 500W or lower).
