Thank you.

Because Malaysian property is built with rebar concrete and use metal window grilles, outdoor aerials are usually a good idea, even a five element at roof height is much better than any indoor plus booster

Hi, I’ve left my aunt’s mytv decoder in standby mode for 5 minutes and I can’t see any RTM channels( TV/radio channels)

Media prima channel got updated though but missing GO shop

Just manual search Mux 1 and Mux 2 frequencies. Like 666MHz and 698MHz, depending on your area.

Actually I wanted to test the automatic tuning( automated), and when I just checked the decoder, it fully auto tuned itself like after 15-30mins in standby mode

Is anyone having audio dropouts on their LG TVs with built in DVB-T2? Mine is model 60UF770T. Video playback is perfect, just the occasional intermittent 1 or 2 seconds audio dropouts which ruins the viewing experience. This happens even when using the internal speakers.

Your signal seems not stable. Check what's the signal strength and quality reading.
Or else, readjust/reposition the antenna.

Quality 100%, Strength 92%. I don't think that's the issue as during the time when the drop out occurs, the quality and strength remains constant. Maybe it's better to ditch this and just switch to njoi.

No problems on my OLED65E6.

My signal is Quality 100%, Strength 66%.

Is this normal? When heavy rain, there’s no signal

normal when the antenna is wet and you don't have the best signal reception

Take pic and show us how's your antenna look like now.

My aunt rents the house and this antenna was installed by the landlord with the wiring done by the landlord

This antenna looks fine...
The cable, is it the RG-6 type? Look at your cable there, and see if there's a label like this:

Here's the comparison between 3C-2V cable (top, commonly used in those days) and RG6 cable (bottom, recommended cable to use for better reception performance).

If it's not RG6 type (e.g. 3C-2V or 5C-2V), then that's likely the culprit of you experiencing that intermittent signal reception.

Also, check if you terminate the cable properly on both ends.

And, loosen the screws just a bit, just to make it loose enough to adjust/turn the antenna around, until you get the highest and stable signal strength readings. Yea, monitor the signal readings while adjusting the antenna is highly recommended.

I don’t think it’s the RG6 cable(based on the assumption of the landlord using it for analog TV), I think there’s some splitting going on between to split 1 antenna to 2 TV done by the landlord( both TV can watch digital TV simultaneously though)

Light rain no issue though, only heavy rain

Oh, use cable splitter will affect the signal, unless if you have in-line amplifier connected, then it should be ok.
What DVB-T2 box or IDTV are you using now? And what's the signal strength you're getting now for both Mux 1 and Mux 2, assuming now is clear weather in your area?

TV1- botato DVB T2
TV2 - mytv basic box

I’ve only measured on TV 1 roughly around 70-80% on mux 1 as far as I recall, mux 2 around 60-70% roughly as far as I recall

Hmm... Try readjust the antenna first if you can.

I don’t think it’s possible for me to climb, don’t have long ladder to climb all the way

The cable splitting happens outdoor, does this means that there’s no in line amplifier, looks like hobby grade splicing to me and it’s covered with tape by the landlord

Most of the time only 1 TV would be used at a time

"Hobby grade slicing" 😂 If like that sure have signal loss due to improper termination...
If possible, try connect it directly to the antenna without any splitter used, and terminate it properly, such as using F connector.
