I'm located in Marikina. Got one digibox 2 weeks ago for my house-help to use, since their CRT TV no longer has an antenna. So far, ABS-CBN channels have very clear reception, but GMA channels come & go. The TV is located in a partially open area (not fully surrounded by walls).

Tnx, how about the other channels?

When you let it scan channels, you can see the frequency per channel found. Too gast to take notes. You can shoot a video and pause it.

Digibox, I read in your for sale ad that some people get solar channels with an external antenna. Can you ask them what kind of antenne the used? I am thinking of Yagi but fear losing other channels since that is very directional.

Also there is another f-connecter beside the antenna input. Can that be used for dual antenna setup?

Here's the antenna a SkyTV+ user used and received Solar Channels.



User said he bought it in DIY Shop for php995, a remote controlled outdoor antenna. Some mentioned that they saw this antenna also in ACE Hardware.  User location is Sta. Ana Manila

I personally saw this antenna last year in ACE hardware - SM Hypermart Pasig. It has a motor that can be controlled remotely. Price was 995.

I lost Channels 2 and Teleradyo today.
Normally channel 2 appears on Channel 1 but today channel 1 is Channel 7.
Any inputs from other users.

Some channels come and go as they go about testing the system. It's ch 7 and 5 that disappears in my location. This is pretty much enjoy what you can service.

Got my 2 digiboxes yesterday but managed to try them out only this afternoon. Maganda ang clarity ng video kahit composite lang. 10 channels lang nasagap indoor dito QC wala pang ch 7. Siguro when I get the chance to get a better indoor antenna lalabas din yung ibang channel. Thanks to digibox for these gadgets!

What is weird is that I get Channel 7 signal in Antipolo but cannot get signal in New Manila.

Got my unit this afternoon and now I'm testing at our home in Santa Rosa, Laguna . . .
 
I just placed the antenna inside the room and I was able to get 10 channels including ABS 2 and TV 5 na super clear  ;D, unfortunately walang GMA 7 pero ok lng kasi malinaw naman ung GMA 7 using Baron antenna  :)

Panalo!
thanks!

I put the digiboxes back in the box until I get a better outdoor antenna but forgot to test the usb port. Is it for upgrades only or can it read hdds?

i think he's selling the tv box and the sim is free. why? i've bought 1 box from him and the included 2 sim cards that are supposedly with P200 load each is almost half nalang. one is P99 and the other one is P110. nagamit pa yata yung load ng sim card kaya ko nasabi na yung box ang binebenta at hindi yung sim card dahil bawas na yung load. dapat nga yata 3 sim card with P200 load each ang included sa box, originally.
But that's ok with me, ang binili ko naman talaga yung tv box with or without the sim card, hindi ko rin naman magagamit yun eh. pinamigay ko lang din yung sim. but the tv box naman is in very good condition.
and i'm very satisfied, 1st time kong makapanood ng abs-cbn sa office ko for a very long time na super linaw talaga, puro gma 7 lang dati, hahaha. ngayon naman tempo. stop yata ang broadcast ng gma in digital, hahaha.

Hi Kier, magkano ang bili mo sa tv box mo? also interested to get one
