For those in JB dropping by SIN over the weekend, the Draco box is available at Courts Store, located t the nearby Woodlands Causeway Point. S$129. Cheers.

hmm so long ah. some old people will not have the chance to view those channels then. May need to wait until tomb sweeping day or ghost festival 2021 to be able to buy the paper version and send to them.. sooo sad

Idiot style thinking. Unless STB is subsidized so much that it's given away for free, I don't think those areas will have people who can even afford a new TV let alone a STB to watch digital . Nevermind that most people in the west coast already own T2 capable TVs

On the plus side, at least we already have T1 signal in west coast. It's shit, sure, but then there's nothing worth watching on terrestrial TV anymore anyway.

For those living in JB, the DRACO HDT2 7300 set top box (STB) is able to receive the DVB-T2 channels from Singapore. However, at S$129 (in Singapore), it's pretty expensive even if an indoor antenna is included, which will not be of use because you must need a rooftop UHF antenna in JB. I've tried it.

Why I said at S$129 is expensive, because you can get the GetMeCom DVBT2 HD9 STB in Indonesia for Rp375,000 (about S$40) for the same specs and features. I believe it should be available for sale in Batam since there are also DVB-T2 transmissions currently in Batam.

The GetMeCom DVBT2 HD9 STB had also been tested by a forumer in Singapore and proved to be working well. To make it even more worthwhile, the GetMeCom DVBT2 HD9 STB even supports USB Internet WiFi Dongle for Youtube, Gmail, USB, RSS, games (from the manufacturer's website), which the DRACO HDT2 7300 STB does not.

If only I had not purchased my DRACO STB yet, I would not mind taking a 1-day ferry trip to Batam to try and buy it. Now, I'm looking for a 3D TV with digital tuner and timeline recording features. From their Malaysian websites, LG TV models have timeline but not DVB-T2 tuner built-in yet. PANASONIC TV models have DVB-T2 tuner built-in, but no recording capability. A big headache for me now.

Update: Sorry, the USB Internet WiFi Dongle support is for the HD009 model, not the HD9 model.

buy this one cheaper

http://factorykiosk.com/product/dvb-t-usb-...receiver-stick/

works very well

can get many tv channels and FM radio and 'some other frequencies'

at less than half the price of that shop selling



with RTL-SDR best bang for the buck

This one only supports DVB-T only.

No difference at all if all you want is to watch/record tv/fm/etc

for more fun, get one with SDR
