side news from retailer
ASTRO HD will be having around 5 HD channels with resolution 1080i.. They included National Geo and HBO..
Thus, only viewer who take those packages can install the HD decoder from ASTRO.. The freq required for HD signal is very high.. Those using Main disc in apartments cannot use the HD service as it need special bigger disc..And those with bad quality wall conceal coaxial cable (usually developer wanna save cost then use china mada wire) also will having problem to use it..

QUOTE(carte82 @ Nov 25 2009, 02:03 PM) Total digital FTA channel to be 19, including RTM and Media Prima. So there are some empty slot for new channel to be introduced. RTM HD whenever trial run will be aired to whole Klang Valley. Thus any USB TV receiver with DVB-T will able to capture the signal, even now you can receive some trial channel in clarity and with EPG. Also some digital RTM radio channel. RTM HD? I thought they are still in SD..just digital signal via DVB-T
