Recently try again the digital TV channel. Can get channel 30 but can't detect channel 32. Is it because of old hardware or antenna?

Previous is working fine when all channel at single frequency and uninstalled it during mytv was shutdown signal tower.

What is your area and state?
And what receiver and antenna do you use?

Melaka.
Small UHF antenna with unknown brand encoder which bought few years ago.

Manual scan channel 32 but no signal. Only channel 30 has signal.

Are you able to receive RTM channels on CH52 (722MHz) frequency?
The info on frequency restacking exercise on early December 2019 has been postponed nationwide.

So far only Langkawi have done their frequency restacking exercise yesterday.
But for right now, for Melaka and Northern Johor area, the current DTT frequency still remains as CH30 546MHz and CH52 722MHz.
Hence, currently there's no frequency retune exercise on other regions.

Thank you for the postponed information.
I was referred to main page new frequency info, didn't know it had postponed. Will check on channel 52.

[/quote]It has been postponed, but MYTV website did not update/change the PDF list of frequency back to current frequencies.

If you can't get any signal on CH52, then try relocate/reposition your antenna, while monitoring the readings on signal strength and quality on your TV,
until you get the highest signal possible (that means that spot has stronger reception. And do check on CH30 546MHz again, make sure you're still getting signal on that after adjusting it.

Tried, best signal position for channel 52 and 30 is two meter away, can't get both channel at single position.

Should I replace antenna or look for outdoor antenna option?

If that's the case, then replace another better antenna, or better, upgrade to outdoor antenna.
Like this one, should be good enough:

You mean you're using this exact outdoor antenna model? Or what?
