(DX 2023) Singapore and Batam FM radio stations received in Segamat, Johor, Malaysia

Commonly Singapore FM radio stations can be received in Southern Johor, Malaysia, and its transmission can be tuned until Central Johor such as Batu Pahat.


On 1st January 2023, I managed to receive 6 Singapore and 2 Batam FM radio stations randomly in Segamat, Johor, Malaysia. Thanks to HBC 101 for introducing me the exact location to DX Singapore radio stations. After we had a dinner at a restaurant in Segamat, we went to Pekan Jabi.


Pekan Jabi in Segamat is the exact location to receive Singapore radio stations.

 

Transmitter site for Singapore radio stations is located in Bukit Batok, the distance is 169km. Meanwhile RRI Batam PRO-1 FM 105.1MHz and Hang FM 106.0MHz are transmitted from Batam, Indonesia, the distance to Segamat is about 203km.


1. Kiss 92FM Singapore (6kW)

Weak signal in Segamat and adjacent channel interference from Lite FM 92.2MHz Gunung Ledang is detected.


2. Symphony FM 92.4MHz Singapore (10kW)


3. CNA 93.8FM Singapore (6kW)


4. Love 97.2FM Singapore (6kW)

 

5. Power 98FM Singapore (12kW)


6. 987FM Singapore (6kW)


7. RRI Batam PRO-1 FM 105.1MHz Batam (5kW)

No signal can be heard in Segamat when I tuned to its sister radio station RRI Batam PRO-2 FM 105.5MHz

 

8. Hang FM 106.0MHz Batam (10kW)


Co-channel interference with CityPlus FM 106.0MHz from Gunung Telapak Buruk is detected in Segamat, Johor.

 

As my car radio receiver has good quality RF filter, except Kiss 92FM, rest of Singapore radio stations have no interference with Gunung Ledang transmitter.
