RTM Negeri FM 92.6MHz is clearer than 107.7MHz in Semerah, Parit Sulong, Batu Pahat and Senggarang, Johor.

Although RTM Negeri FM has Gunung Ledang transmitter on 107.7MHz, same as what I mentioned on previous blog articles, but the frequency coverage only intends to cover East Negeri Sembilan areas such as Gemas, Gemencheh, Air Mawang, Serting Ulu, Simpang Pertang, Batu Kikir and Felda Lui where are blindspot coverage of FM 92.6MHz Gunung Telapak Buruk transmitter.

 

In Johor, the clearest areas to tune Negeri FM 107.7MHz are Tangkak, Sungai Mati, Jementah, Batu Anam, Panchor, Pagoh, Bukit Gambir and Gerisek, meanwhile it is not clear in Muar, Yong Peng, Segamat, Bekok and Parit Jawa.

 

What I'm interested about the coverage of Negeri FM in Johor is Batu Pahat District actually.

 

Since FM 107.7MHz Gunung Ledang transmitter is not clear in Muar District, but the signal of FM 92.6MHz from Gunung Telapak Buruk is slightly better. So, I conduct the signal inspection of Negeri FM 92.6MHz and 107.7MHz in Batu Pahat District today, covering Parit Sulong, Semerah, Batu Pahat and Senggarang.

 

1. Parit Sulong (Postcode: 83500)

92.6MHz is clearer than 107.7MHz overall when I drive from Yong Peng to Semerah through Parit Sulong route.

 

2. Semerah (Postcode: 83600)

Semerah is a small town of Batu Pahat District, but it is located near Muar District border. Same as Parit Jawa and Muar, RTM Negeri FM 92.6MHz Gunung Telapak Buruk transmitter is clearer than 107.7MHz from Gunung Ledang in Semerah.

 

3. Batu Pahat (Postcode: 83000)

Both 92.6MHz and 107.7MHz signal are moderate to weak, but 92.6MHz dominates more coverage than 107.7MHz in Batu Pahat.

 

4. Senggarang (Postcode: 83200)

In Johor, from Muar to Pontian, Senggarang is the last coverage of RTM Negeri FM 92.6MHz Gunung Telapak Buruk transmitter before becoming no signal in Rengit, Johor, meanwhile FM 107.7MHz Gunung Ledang has no signal in Senggarang, Johor. Negeri FM 92.6MHz from Gunung Telapak Buruk is the furthest radio station tuned in Senggarang, Johor with 163km tuning distance.

 

Negeri FM could be only tuned on 107.7MHz in Sri Gading, Ayer Hitam and Parit Raja with weak signal, meanwhile no signal to tune on FM 92.6MHz.

By conducting overall radio coverage check of RTM Negeri FM in Batu Pahat District, 92.6MHz Gunung Telapak Buruk transmitter dominates more coverage than 107.7MHz Gunung Ledang transmitter.
