RTB Pelangi FM 91.4MHz from Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei is the furthest radio station tuned in Sebauh, Sarawak, Malaysia.

 


During Hari Raya Aidilfitri festival, as per plan, I came to Bintulu and Miri, Sarawak for radio DXing and holiday, the trip includes Tatau, Sebauh, Batu Niah and Bekenu.


On 1st day of Hari Raya Aidilfitri, I went to Tatau, Bintulu and Sebauh. Tatau was my first destination after arriving the airport for breakfast, but I don't have radio DXing content in Tatau because there has no far radio signal can be tuned.


Then, I proceed to Sebauh.





Sebauh is a rural town in Bintulu Division, Sarawak, the most famous site is a Chinese temple because it is located on the river.


For radio DXing, Sebauh is not an unique location to receive ultra far radio signal as the rural town is covered by terrains, but surprisingly I received RTB Pelangi FM 91.4MHz from Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei there.


Although there has no DX radio signal in Sebauh, but RTB Pelangi FM 91.4MHz from Brunei becomes the furthest radio station tuned in Sebauh, Bintulu Division, Sarawak, Malaysia, meanwhile I could not receive any Brunei radio stations signal in Bintulu, unless tropospheric propagation.


Very mild signal of Brunei radio station RTB Pelangi FM 91.4MHz was received in Sebauh, Sarawak, Malaysia, but Pelangi FM 91.0MHz signal from Andulau was negative there.
