Telok Melano is the westernmost area in Sarawak, it takes 2 hour journey to travel from Kuching, the capital of Sawak.
About the radio coverage, Telok Melano is covered by Gunung Serapi transmitter, but listeners in this area can receive radio stations from Indonesia, meanwhile Bukit Djin transmitted Kuching radio stations cannot be received there clearly.
Surprisingly, Peninsular Malaysia based Johor radio station from Gunung Pulai can be detected its signal in Telok Melano, Sarawak.
A radio DXer from Sarawak has received Sinar FM radio signal from Gunung Pulai on FM 87.8MHz in Telok Melano, Sarawak today.
Sinar FM 87.8MHz from Gunung Pulai mainly targets South Johor, it can be tuned in Singapore and Batam.
According to the video, the signal of Sinar FM 87.8MHz is weak in Telok Melano, Sarawak.
Although Sinar FM is available in Kuching on 102.1MHz from Bukit Djin, but it cannot be received in Sematan and Telok Melano because it operates only at 0.25kW transmitter power.
In terms of tuning distance, Sinar FM 87.8MHz becomes the furthest radio station in Telok Melano, Sarawak with 692km.
