champers Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Has anyone else lost the reception for this radio channel? They have seemingly vanished and I have been reduced to listening to Barry Upskirt on 96FM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johng Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 103 FM is still broadcasting loud and clear here in Na-Jomtien using FM radio on mobile phone. Maybe you had some damage from the lightning last night which was quite spectacular horizontal lighning like this. (not my photo but it was like this) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko45k Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 (edited) Is Barry back? I also could not find 103 FM last weekend when I got into the truck and in panic and horror was trying to eliminate the caterwauling left in the CD player.

Apparently 96 FM was having an interference issue which has been reported as resolved. Also claiming to have some new transmitting equipment so perhaps give it a try. I am 12km North of town and neither could be found for me on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Thai pirate station operating on a band very close to 96. That was resolved but, since then, 96FM's transmitter power seems vastly reduced. Can only pick it up in Central Pattaya now.

Well it was reported as relocated for better coverage, but I cannot argue you may be correct. I couldn't get it North of town in the truck and not clear in the house.

johng Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Remember after the last coup they ( the men in green ) shut down every "independent" radio station for quite a while..then if a station wanted to broadcast again they had to go through a much stricter licencing procedure and only use "approved" equipment. I thought all the ( approved obviously no pirate) radio and TV stations for Pattaya area are supposed to be transmitted from the Navy radio station on Thapraya Hill ?

LennyW Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 It's the current weather folks, change in the weather today back to 100% clarity in Ban Chang in the car, if you are having issues in Pattaya ....it's not their fault! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzzi850m2 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I only listen to 103 while driving and its fine today around Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balo Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 In this digital age, why don't you just listen on a radio app on your phone? If you have a local sim card with internet , just download a radio player and search for Pattaya 103. I connect my Bluetooth speakers to the smart phone and can listen to any station without interference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
