Batu Arang is a small town of Rawang, located in Gombak District, Selangor, it is also a heritage town because Batu Arang was a charcoal mining town since British Colonial of Malaya, postcode is 48100.
I came here on 27th January 2024 in the evening before coming to company dinner which held in Subang Jaya at 6.30pm. While my working mates went back home first to take bath, but I took bath at my working place at 3.30pm and departed directly from Puchong by 4.05pm via LDP, ELITE, GUTHRIE and LATAR highways after the working hours, reached Batu Arang at 5.10pm to conduct radio DXing.
Same as Puncak Alam and Bestari Jaya like what I did on 24th December 2023, I made an attempt to receive Raaga's Taiping frequency FM 102.1MHz which transmitted from Bukit Larut in Batu Arang. Unfortunately, no signal from Raaga on FM 102.1MHz was heard in Batu Arang, instead adjacent frequency noise of Pahang FM 102.2MHz Bukit Fraser transmitter heard on FM 102.1MHz.
Forgot about Raaga FM 102.1MHz, I managed to record the distant radio signal of Negeri FM 92.6MHz (Gunung Telapak Buruk), Ai FM 92.1MHz (Gunung Kledang) and Perak FM 95.6MHz (Gunung Kledang) in Batu Arang, Selangor.
RTM Negeri FM 92.6MHz from Gunung Telapak Buruk is still clear in Batu Arang town, Selangor, meanwhile Gunung Kledang transmitted radio stations (Ai FM 92.1MHz and Perak FM 95.6MHz) are extremely weak and having interference with local radio stations (Fly FM 95.8MHz Gunung Ulu Kali and Minnal FM 92.3MHz Kuala Lumpur Tower).

3. Negeri FM 92.6MHz Gunung Telapak Buruk (85km)
