Headed to the FairPrice Xtra after work to buy the SGD29 NewMedia Solutions High Quality Digital TV Indoor Active Antenna (3 Meters). Headed back home to test it by connecting the active digital TV antenna to my DVB-T2 ready Panasonic TH-40CX600S TV.
Antenna Gain: Up to 36dB Gain (Max).
Max. output level: 100dBuV
Noise figure: ≤ 3dB.
Powered by STB or TV (DC5V/40mA).
3 meters cable length.
As long the antenna is powered (via the power inserter with USB cable) and placed near the window, you will be able to pick up the digital TV signal fairly easily. Below shows all the listed Free-to-Air digital channels Mediacorp is offering after the channel scan.
Similar picture and reception quality as compared with the same HD channel on a set top box that’s still hooked up to the building’s coaxial antenna.
Thanks very much for your post and showing the clear steps in setting up the antenna. It’s definitely very helpful to to show how easy it is to setup especially for those who has not switched over to digital yet thinking that it might be difficult to do so.
And very grateful that you used our antenna for your excellent post. Thank you!
With warmest regards,
Nicholas
