Seems credible enough.



So 104 & 106 got boost after temporary channel 201 & 202 was removed.

Still get newspaper ? even thestar doesn't show the episode on some tvshow.

senQ should give a reference link or official announcement or reference from relevant authority, not simply created like this via their FB ! They just want business IMO,

senQ 仙老百姓啊 ?

senQ simply posting like this 有點狼來了 的 feeling !

Malaysia's analogue switch off will be done by October 2019 anyway. So what if it's 1 month ahead of schedule?
Or maybe, that 1 Sept 2019 is ASO being carried out in certain parts of Malaysia...? Similar like Langkawi is the first place to have ASO in Malaysia.

Right now I just hope all Malaysia analogue stations to put the "squeeze back" message nationwide, similar like Langkawi one.

Seriously, they shouldn't wait until the last few weeks before ASO, then only notify viewers like this, even if the excuse is not many viewers is watching on analogue TV today.

Woah time is running out.

I bought some aluminium tube to construct diy uhf antenna and also bought booster.

However if still can't get proper signal guess my last salvation is to get S2 decoder. Does mytv DTH can be received with Gtmedia v7 plus + standard Astro dish?

Just wanna make sure before order, before the price soars. Who knows.

Edit. Just checked lyngsat. Asiasat 9 mytv (green) encrypted?
Sorry satellite noob here.

* sudah berpatah arang dengan Astro

which area u staying?

asiasat 9 only can be received by original activated mytv decoder

woah thats one long antenna

i think the signal reflected from building in front of your house

You need to buy T2 decoder either MYTV original or other brands. MCMC certified or not, it's up to you (Any difference? 😑). Check your nearest transmission tower to decide which type of antenna to use and the right direction to receive good signal. As I told by some experts, booster is only for increasing signal strength not quality, so it's only needed for location far away from transmission tower.

Gtmedia v7 plus does have T2 & S2 🤭

ASO announcement..



19 August 2019 - Johor, Melaka, Negeri Sembilan, Selangor, Perak and Kuala Lumpur

02 September 2019 - Kedah, Perlis and Pulau Pinang

17 September 2019 - Kelantan, Terengganu and Pahang

30 September 2019 - Sabah and Sarawak

Yeah I know. But if only want to receive MYTV only, buy a T2 decoder is enough which comes with cheaper price unless MYTV original decoder. 😅

Government to conduct "pilot test" on analogue switch off in these states

Date	Region	States
21 July 2019	Langkawi	Langkawi
19 August 2019	Central + South	Klang Valley, Perak, Negeri Sembilan, Melaka and Johor
2 September 2019	Northern	Penang, Kedah, Perlis
17 September 2019	Eastern	Kelantan, Terengganu and Pahang
30 September 2019	East Malaysia	Sabah and Sarawak

The "pilot test" is basically, the actual date of ASO in the region
Just say Analogue Switch Off lah, why use pilot test/test run all those terms?

It seems to me that because they know that not many analogue TV viewers out there, so they rather do it like this. Because, when viewers who not fully aware of ASO is about, and suddenly can't receive analogue TV signal, automatically they will make noise somewhere. And that is only when MYTV must step out to educate them how to receive digital TV.

Considering the fact that many Malaysians don't bother about analogue TV anymore, this move is somehow smart and might save some costs especially in promoting and advertising part. And, for those who are not aware of what analogue TV or digital TV is about, they might as well don't need to know about it because either they're already consuming online contents and OTT services or watch on Astro/Njoi as their primary source of entertainment and news, and also very very likely that they are not interested to know what digital TV is about. I'm not saying no one will watch Malaysian digital TV, but it is assumable that not many Malaysians will even bother and care about it, considering the majority of Malaysian consumer behaviour.

For instance, try compare how Singapore carry out ASO. They would encourage viewers that they can also watch Mediacorp shows on Toggle across their devices, including Chromecast. You don't see MYTV themselves to encourage Malaysians to use Tonton or RTM Mobile or any other streaming platforms, yet they "recommend" the primary option to buy their set-top-box to you, and they don't put too much emphasis that viewers can receive digital TV directly from their TV set that has built-in digital TV DVB-T2 tuner. I believe you know why they do that.

It's good that government finally announced the confirmed date of ASO. I really hope they really turn it off without any delay, and no U-turn on ASO dates.

Restacking to be happen soon for some or all multiplexes on 22 sites. Tender notices had been released. Hope that there will be some simulcast or notification for a small period during restacking or there will be another fiasco for MYTV, like when RTM moved to other MUX.

Hmm.. This is some technical stuff that I'm not so sure with...
What does it means by tender is needed to restack multiplexes? Assign which frequency to use?

Why they need tender out to someone to assist them to carry out frequency restacking activities? I thought MYTV already know how to do those stuff, since they are infrastructure provider?

I think my situation is difficult. My last effort is booster + diy high gain antenna. If still can't get signal I'll have to suck up to njoi.

Also if sat box can get tv1 and tv3 SD also good enough for my mother. I don't watch TV.

Using booster to receive digital TV is not recommended, and very likely you'll get "No Signal" (not able to watch at all).
For digital TV, receive "too much" signals can make it become "No Signal" due to signal overload on the TV tuner. Don't worry, it won't cause damage, but you can't watch it though.

Consider these options:
1) Change and lay new cabling that connects from antenna to your TV, especially if the cable is very old already (e.g. more than 10+ years).
If your old cable type is 3C2V (as shown on picture), then you seriously should get it changed. It's very old already.

Make sure use RG6 coaxial cable, which is the same cable type used for Astro.

make sure the cable is connected directly from antenna's output port straight to your TV's antenna input, without any cable splitter or signal booster connected in between.

2) If lay new cable still can't receive, can take photo of your outdoor antenna? See how it looks like.
It depends, you might consider buy new UHF antenna.

Btw how's your DIY high gain antenna look like?

Anyhow, any inquires on receiving digital TV signals, you may call myFreeview customer service at 1800-18-1088. It is a toll free number.

Thanks. I'm building one now. Just bought pvc pipe for. Boom and 12mm x20 ft aluminium tube. All below 25 ringgit.

I'm looking at yagi calculator. What frequency should I use as reference? Start from 470 or use 666 MHz? TIA

Edit just cut my tube length using 670MHz as reference freq

Sounds pro.. Share us some photos once it's done

Revised frequency planning has to be done, including the sequence of retuning by site.
Then the transmitters have to be adjusted. The multiplex combiners have to be retuned or changed.

MyTV paid contractors to install the transmitters in the first place, they have very few staff themselves.

those who ask for help from MYTV, becareful, KNOCK, KNOCK. MCMC raid party is here.
