Erm I meant buy back the dvb-t2 tuner from Hong Kong to bring back to Singapore from shamshuipo

Which one should I get?

Poloboiboi's point is you won't find DVB-T2 tuner in their market when it is not the TV signal standard used there (in HK). Just as you don't expect US stores to sell electronics that comes with UK plug.

Well in that case you can try but then you have to take note that not all dvbt2 tuners are compatible with Singapore's dvbt2 standard

Why take the risk and buy when you can't test it over there right

Yup... got all of them... the 8 local channels transmitting on digital T2 signal...

Congrats, getting the channels should not be a problem unless your area had not been phase in for digital broadcast yet.

Hi guys, I got a question pertaining to digital TV. I currently using a sharp LEDTV and doesn't comes with DVB-T2 tuner built in. Can i just use one of these 3 antennas from amazon and get digital channel instantly?

Antenna 1
Antenna 2

Or do I have to a get DVB-T2 tuner and use the above antenna to boost the signals?

Appreciate the help!

You need a DVB-T2 tuner/set top box first then the antenna comes next.

I just brought a sharp 60LE360X with DVB-T2, but I plug in antenna and start tuning plug in Acryan TV antenna booster but can't find any channel on digital. Can I know if the postal code 760284 have any coverage on Digital HD channel to be able to receive it?


I plug in to SCV point tune to Analog channel no problem.

Do note that running the AC Ryan antenna with a DVB-T2 TV (aka not using the AC Ryan tuner box) requires an external power supply for the booster to be on. You should see a red light when the booster is indeed on. If the in line booster is used, but it is not powered, you will not get anything at all.

The AC Ryan tuner box can supply power directly via the antenna cable to the booster.

You might need to reposition your antenna nearer to a window since your house in Yishun can't get digital signal indoor well. :)

Please put your active antenna outside the window will be able to receive in your area. So far we didn't encounter any place in Singapore can't receive the digital Tv signal.

Anyone here, can advise do your DVB-T2 TV can support active antenna function like STB ? If yes, can you please share your TV model. Thanks.
