Voice of Vietnam VOV-3 FM 102.7MHz (An Giang) received in Kelantan, Malaysia (PART 1): Ketereh

In Kelantan state of Malaysia, alongside local radio stations, we can also follow Thailand FM radio broadcast from Narathiwat, Sungai Golok and Yala as Kelantan is next to Thailand border.


Surprisingly, my friend from Kelantan sent me a video which he received a Vietnam FM radio station in Kelantan on last Saturday. It is on Voice of Vietnam VOV-3 FM 102.7MHz from An Giang province (Transmitter site: Núi Cấm), received in Ketereh, Kelantan, Malaysia on 11th March 2023 approximately 0910 hours.

 


I can't comment that this Vietnam radio station tuned in Ketereh, Kelantan, Malaysia is tropospheric or normal propagation because Voice of Vietnam VOV-3 FM 102.7MHz from An Giang (Núi Cấm) is far adjacent to Kelantan, Malaysia, somewhat VOV-3 FM 102.7MHz is using high power radio transmitter.

From above, Voice of Vietnam VOV-3 FM 102.7MHz from An Giang (Núi Cấm) radio reception had much static tuned in Ketereh, Kelantan, Malaysia, and it could have adjacent channel interference with RTM Kelantan FM 102.9MHz from Wakaf Che Yeh which is local transmitter.


I may believe that Voice of Vietnam VOV-3 FM 102.7MHz An Giang frequency could be received in Bachok, Pengkalan Chepa and Cherang Ruku because they are Kelantan coastal areas. In addition, these 3 locations are far adjacent to An Giang, Vietnam.


Between Kelantan costal areas and An Giang, Vietnam, there are no having terrains, so I think VOV-3 FM 102.7MHz could overspill its signal to Kelantan. I feel interested to check this radio station in Kelantan coastal areas actually.
