QUOTE(AV_2018 @ Jul 30 2019, 05:48 PM) When aligning antenna I use the signal strength/quality indicator on the TV/STB. Yagi I bought from the row of electrical shops at the Satok end of Jalan Tun Ahmad Zaidi Adruce. A shop selling lights and switches. How much ya and you know the shop name? Maybe I try to adjust it higher first my current antenna and see if can capture ntv7 and 8tv. Coz my opposite relative house can watch both channel without antenna coz his TV got built in dvbt2 tuner and maybe his house location is a little bit higher compared to mine

For the list of channels and frequencies for Serapi, you can refer to my past post here. The shop might be this one if I'm not wrong, it was some time ago. https://goo.gl/maps/bE4H31qKsNNqR1NM6 EDIT: Found the price: RM40+ for antenna and RM20+ for stand. I self-assembled and used astro RG6 cable. This post has been edited by AV_2018: Jul 30 2019, 06:01 PM

You can buy RG6 cable from some shops along the row of shops that I linked in the map too. You can find almost anything electrical/electronic related there including the official MYTV STB and parts to make your own indoor antenna or terminate the cable.

QUOTE(nightzstar @ Jul 30 2019, 08:47 AM)  Tried manual search key in frequency for gunung Serapi no luck getting ntv7 or 8tv. Only got tv1, tv2, HD sports rtm, radio, BES only. Shitty channel. Any solutions to this sifu kopitiam? Change to astro njoi, get new TV with built in dvbt2 or try other antenna? QUOTE(nightzstar @ Jul 30 2019, 05:26 PM) Mean I shall adjust it higher again? QUOTE(nightzstar @ Jul 30 2019, 05:41 PM) Already adjusted to point the transmission tower at Serapi. I use the transmission locator app to align the antenna. Where you buy that Yagi in Kuching?  located at unigarden. further than your area This post has been edited by kopitiam: Jul 31 2019, 07:47 AM

TV1 SD and TV2 SD had been removed from MYTV MUX 1.
Also, on the Mediacorp 570MHz MUX, "okto (HD)" has been relabeled as "Test" and is showing a variant of PM5544 testcard.

So 570MHz has 3 HD channels now? Channel NewsAsia HD, Channel U HD, and Test? Can screenshot the test card, wanna have a look...

However, Mediacorp did not remove the channel long after its closure and instead swapped with test card and relabeled it as "Test", likely for future purpose. The test card on the "Test" channel look like this : This post has been edited by shaun_kok: Aug 1 2019, 12:12 PM

A stack of moderate sized Yagis will give more gain than a monster single antenna, especially as 470-700MHz TV is too wide band for a high gain Yagi. Multi-bay Bow Ties also work well https://www.solidsignal.com/bowtie-tv-antenna-th.asp
