If your satellite list menu naming settings in DVB-S2 decoder is correct, this is really INTERESTING. Why to use ABS2 @ 75'E, C-band to test and not MEASAT@91.5'E, and ABS2 have lower elevation than MEASAT although this is NOT a huge obstacle.

Yang pelik, why use non-M'sia satellite to test ? Is it testing for another DtH pay TV using C-band apart from existing Astro ? hmmmm.

I can't really think of any relation between DVB-T2 and ABS2 because each DVB-T2 transmitter site can always get feeds for MEASAT either C or Ku (need Astro smart card for decrypt legally) for relay but Ku having disadvantage during raining days compared to C-band. As DVB-T2 in Thailand always relay from Thaicom C-band MUX.

I think the authority may try to setup an encrypted MUX / MCPC specially for DVB-T2 relay. At Thaicom, there are clear and BISS encrypted local channels: ch.3.5.7.9.11.TPBS. BISS encrypted bouquet will have football match watchable in weekend but the clear and unencrypted ch.3 and ch.7 will display a printed notice said that 'This programme is not available due to copyrights'. The C-band Thai local clear channels from Thaicom C-band can be view as far as in Taiwan if approx 12ft dish is used.


Appear during the match. Disappear after match ended. Different from Indonesia, they encrypted during match and decrypted after match end.

This is what i can guess at the moment. Anyone any idea ? Please share.

Bro, TQ for interesting screeenshot.

U use ka band LNB for ____ ?

U broadcast / jamming ? Hahaha

No lah just joking. I presumed your LNB looks like one at petrol stn ? What purpose petrol stn use for the huge offset dish with Tx and Rx LNB ?

then you need a box, something like Astro decoder to decoder DVB-T2 signal or change whole TV set to latest model equipped with DVB-T2 tuner.

A good source to gettting to know what is Digital TV.

It made a lot of ppl sick that no proper DVB-T2 schedule published at MYTV Facebook. Compared to Thailand, they have proper estimated timetable published for public reference when and where digital UHF signal coverage about to start and the direction for antenna to point to etc.

MYTV seems sleeping. If anyone visit to their Facebook, their admin posted unrelated info on it. Is this the way MYTV working towards vision 2020 ?

Just google 'MYTV Broadcasting Facebook', you will be link to MYTV Facebook. See their Facebook admin writing about on their timeline, NOT reflecting their role as digital tv player for public acknowledgment about the trial progress !

monopoly is ok if they really have good workout for public. But this......!

Yes, but you may go to Tesco Lotus supermarket, more choices of brands and models.

I didn't get it in 7-11 Sadao, the 7-11 in Sadao are small shops, there is a Tesco Lotus supermarket in Sadao. Please have a look there sure they have various brands. Basic model starting with THB 690 may not have USB recording features.

Please post some pics if you have successfully bought the DVB-T2 set top box in Haadyai.

Lovely STB. hopefully you enjoy it with its USB features.

Which Hyper-market you bought this stb from ? Big-C, Tesco-Lotus ?

The 2-pin A/C plug used nowadays in Thailand wall socket having a slighly bigger diameter, it might not able to be slotted / plugged smoothly into Malaysia wall socket. A universal plug converter will solve this. My stb bought from Thailand also have this kind of A/C plug.

Since you tagged your location as in JB, I think you may use to receive MediaCorp DVB-T2. Some Singapore area capable to receive DVB-T2 from Batam too (I heard from SG DVB-T2 forum), not sure about JB.

Not all 7-11 carry stb. Some 7-11 shops are quite small, limited space.

Mine is MCOT white color DVB-T2 bought in Haadyai.

I am also using a Thai local brand (actually China-made) i-Mobile GSM phone equipped with DVB-T2: i-Mobile IQ 5.8 DTV. It is useful when travelling if destination countries that are using DVB-T/T2, watching TV without relying on data but again it is a cheap product. Battery drainning pretty fast.




Thai society widely recognised this logo for their digital TV DVB-T2.

Can share pictures of your newly bought second unit DVB-T2 stb ?

Thanks for sharing pics.

The purpose of 'country' selection menu is 'to tell' the stb from which frequency start to scan, if you selected:

1. Malaysia,
DVB-T freq. 174 – 230 MHz
DVB-T2 freq 470 - 862 MHz

so, stb will start scanning from 174 MHz and you will get both DVB-T and T2 channels




2. Thailand,
DVB-T2 freq 470 - 862 MHz

so, stb will start scanning from 470 MHz and you will get both DVB-T2 channels.

If your location in KL and select ‘Thailand’ for menu, I believe, you will missed out DVB-T. System will scan through DVB-T2 range only and you may get no channel. Have you tried this before ?



Just play around if you have extra time to get to know your receiver better.

Have fun.
