where do you stay bro ? i got field data from many bros bought my receiver.

Bros from johor bahru that bought my receiver also can receive all 15 dvbt2 mediacorpse channels :D enjoying 1080hd transmission song dah :s13:

Here's a map view of my house location distance:
sWZ2R9o
( Image backup link if it doesn't work: imgur: the simple image sharer )

The blue circle points to where my house location is approximately at(Yishun South), while the orange circle points to the neighborhood area where there's DVB-T2 indoor-ready broadcast( Ang Mo Kio).

Am I able to get a relatively good indoor signal? Look forward to your field data if it applies to my situation. Thanks! :)

Hi, i'm new to this DVB-T2 thing, my dad asked me to help him with it. Apparently the set is unable to detect certain channels like "Channel U and OKTO". Can someone help?

I'm using this brand:
DVB-T2 Car Receiver-Digital TV for Car | SYTA TECHNOLOGY LIMITED

U might have tuned to the DVB-T signals instead, which only have HD5, CH5, CH8, CNA.

Your set probably does not comply with DVB-T2 lite (version 1.3.1) which is a requirement to the reception of MediaCorp DVB-T2 signals.

I see, may I know if they are using outdoor antenna or indoor antenna to receive the digital T2 signals, as outdoor reception is already available islandwide and my intention is to use an indoor antenna to receive the T2 signals.

hi bro, can i enquire what type of monitor/lcd screen you using to receive digital broadcast for car ? what type of input does the monitor/lcd screen take ?

I looking for those 7"/8"/10" china tablets, thought to use them as monitor/lcd watch dvbt2 inside car, but tablets hdmi is output only, the tablets that i found cannot take audio video input signals (be it HDMI, Component, Composite-S)

LCD monitor is just too large and bulky, tablet is perfect.

In other words, support for the DVB-T2 Lite is optional in Sg standard and MediaCorp don't broadcast for mobile reception.

More info please on the channels that can be received, with frequency and/or channel no. if available.

The set probably doesn't comply with Sg standard - this is very common with untested sets.

Yah but as long as the DVB-T2 receiver is compliant to v1.3.1, it will be able to support the Singapore standard which uses v1.3.1 too.

Is anyone able to receive Trans7 (Indo channel) transmission from Batam?

Wish to know location, indoor/outdoor/MATV antenna, the level u are staying at if u are receiving it through ur indoor/outdoor antenna. If receiving by MATV antenna, the height of the building where the MATV is located.

(Looking for free live MotoGP race viewing :s13:)
