In Kuala Rompin, RTM has the local repeater for its 4 radio stations currently such as Radio Klasik FM 93.7MHz, Pahang FM 91.9MHz, Ai FM 89.9MHz and Traxx FM 90.7MHz, however Minnal FM does not have Kuala Rompin transmitter like Nasional FM as per mentioned previously in June 2023.
Minnal FM is not launched in Kuala Rompin because there are very less Indians in that town, anyway this Tamil radio station is still receivable in Kuala Rompin through distant frequencies.
Without Kuala Rompin repeater like other RTM radio stations, Minnal FM can be tuned in Kuala Rompin via 88.3MHz from Bukit Tinggi which is Mersing frequency.
Back to 29th August 2022, I went to Kuala Rompin from Kuantan to conduct radio signal monitoring. I did the radio signal comparison of Minnal FM with two frequencies such as 88.3MHz from Bukit Tinggi and 103.3MHz from Gunung Ledang.
By comparing two frequencies, Minnal FM 88.3MHz signal is better than 103.3MHz in Kuala Rompin, even 88.3MHz shows more stable STEREO signal than 103.3MHz.
Meanwhile FM 90.5MHz from Gunung Telapak Buruk is badly interfered by Traxx FM 90.7MHz Kuala Rompin repeater in Kuala Rompin, and 96.3MHz from Gunung Ulu Kali is weak there like Nasional FM 95.3MHz.
Among 4 frequencies of Minnal FM, 88.3MHz from Bukit Tinggi is the clearest in Kuala Rompin.
==Minnal FM radio reception in Kuala Rompin, Pahang==
