How To Improve TV Reception ? Use SCV Outlet Or Old Antenna Outlet At The Wall ?

[GOD IS MY DOG]

so finally got a new 39'' Full-HD LED TV and since the broadcast is Standard Definition, the picture quality even on 4:3 aspect ratio is quite blur compared to old CRT.........:(

the CRT was also connected to the SCV outlet...........wonder if the old antenna outlet at the wall still works ?

anyway, invested in the best Daiyo antenna cable i could find and the picture improved a bit........connected the TV to a AC powerline filter also helped...........but still picture not satisfactory...........:(


so should i call the SCV people to take a look...............or should i buy another better antenna cable (maybe Belden)......or should i try at the old antenna outlet at the wall...............?

Digital TV with Analog Antenna....you steady lah! hahahaha!

Mediacrap broadcast free to air both HD and Standard Definition.
SD is analog for older TV set.
HD for newer set that can decode HD broadcast.
Antenna no need digital or special one.
Many can receive HD with cable not even plugged to any aerial.
Set your TV to auto-tuning.
HD TV will pick up HD CH 5, 8, CNA (channel 805 and others) and store them first before going on to find SD version channel 5, 8 CNA and others including MY and Indon channels.

How many PVs do we need to maintain per month to qualify for Diamond position?

you get full HD worse

mediacorp 8 only on standard res
so your TV has to 'enlarge' the image 4 times and strectch
so become blur

wat brand TV you buy
if u buy a china TV
they may not include a digital to analog cpnverter in the TV
so image quality is poor

check your TV setting
turn off motion enhancement. if any

your TV only good for playing very HD blue ray disc

my TV got no digital tuner........anyway, MDA switching to DVB-T2 broadcast in December so almost all current digital tuners will be obsolete.......that's why i never bother with getting a tv with digital tuner.

i thought only some Ch5 programmes is broadcast in HD while all other channels are still Standard Definition ?

i know connecting to SCV point can't get HD..............so will connecting to old antenna outlet at the wall (to the aerial on rooftop) can improve reception ?

That will depend on how strong your powerline is. I mean the left and the right powerline.
