Kool 101 can be tuned in small part of Kelantan via FM 90.2MHz from Penang's Bukit Penara?

It is 2 years and 3 months anniversary of Kool 101 (formerly known as Buletin FM) closing its transmission in Kota Bharu and Kuala Terengganu while the frequencies were taken over by Molek FM.

Listeners who tune to Kool 101 in Kota Bharu and Kuala Terengganu have to listen on either:

1. Audio+ app

2. Kool 101 YouTube LIVE streaming

3. MYTV CH716

I refer several radio DXing videos on YouTube which some people received radio signal from Gunung Jerai in part of Kelantan such as Ketereh, Kota Bharu and Kubang Kerian. Therefore, it makes me interested to know whether Kool 101 can be tuned in these Kelantan areas via frequency FM 90.2MHz from Bukit Penara or not. Then, I drop my request to my radio hobbyists in Kelantan to film video of receiving Kool 101 FM 90.2MHz in Kota Bharu areas.

Initially I predicted that it is impossible to tune Kool 101 via Penang frequency FM 90.2MHz in Kota Bharu (overspill signal from Bukit Penara) because of R-Radio Network FM 90.25MHz from Sungai Golok, Thailand, but surprisingly my friend sends me a video of tuning Kool 101 FM 90.2MHz in Kelantan today.

Kool 101 FM 90.2MHz is the first Bukit Penara transmitted radio station, received in Kelantan. According to my friend, he receives Kool 101 FM 90.2MHz in Ketereh where is just 23km from Kota Bharu, the state capital of Kelantan.

The signal is weak in Ketereh, Kelantan. By comparing between FM 90.2MHz content and Kool 101 online streaming on Audio+ app, both are matched. 

Previously, no any records of tuning Kool 101 FM 90.2MHz in Kelantan after its Kota Bharu frequency 88.6MHz became Hot FM. 

The radio reception of Kool 101 FM 90.2MHz from Bukit Penara in Kelantan is tropospheric propagation. By conducting the signal availability of Kool 101 FM 90.2MHz in Kelantan, I believe it is receivable in some Kota Bharu areas, meanwhile the frequency will become R-Radio Network FM 90.25MHz from Sungai Golok if I tune in Pasir Mas, Ayer Lanas and Rantau Panjang.

It is impossible of Kool 101 FM 90.2MHz can be heard in Jeli, Tanah Merah, Kuala Krai, Bachok, Tumpat and Pasir Puteh.
