28dBi vs 30dBi got alot difference?

I can't tell this, if you would to get the answer ,you have to put both antenna side by side to your set for testing.

As for my recommend to you, you can try to shift your draco antenna near to window as possible.

Why can't MDA recognize that this is a big hassle plus cost to everybody!!!
Sibei jialat!!!

they must have expected this yet still push ahead
must be some hidden agenda
likely is a temporary measure to buy time for something more concrete still in the making ... but is still a waste of time and $$

Hi all, I got t2 tv and tried plugging to MATV @ Bedok but only can receive Test UHF CH.33 570mhz with signal strength 8% and quality 15%. Bad I will say...

Does this mean my MATV is working but bedok area not ready or is MATV's antenna is failing and need to get a indoor antenna?

Anyone from bedok can advise?

Just plugin it into a compatible phone or tablet.

Results have been mixed, and depends on location.

Honestly speaking i don't think there's any hidden agenda it's more like what the f**k can u do ? They simply forced u to go out and buy the digital receivers and antenna if u don't than u don't get to watch the channels come 2016, it's typically how the gov in Singapore works nowadays. :(

I personally don't see the need for commotion anymore when StarHub is already pushing all these Mediacorp digital HD and SD channels via cable unencrypted.

You simply just need a TV with DVB-C compliant tuner.

By unencrypted u mean that u can watch hd channels on tv with dvb-c tuner without subscribing to Starhub ? If so kudos to Starhub, if not than i guess we're back to square one aren't we ?

Anybody encountered this issue?

I can get 90% strong signals for Channel 5 DH. However, when my tuner can't even detect the channel 8 signal. What is going on?:s22:

Hi all,
I got margon combo 5.1 and all channels works:)
Location @ bedok interchange 4th floor. Device is LG55LA740T. Now I got a question, it seems like subtitles don't work for channel 8 & 5 hd. When I select chinese or English it just don't show up...
