I wanted to see TV in my room, free to air channels.
I moved my box TV from my living room and into my room. THere are only 2 wires. One TV cable wire and power wire. So i plugged the TV cable wire into my room HDB TV point.The TV point got put TV and FM. I tried both and they dun work.
There was no clear image at all. In fact, the image was better when i let the cable be loosely held against the TV point hole than when i fully inserted it and tightened them.
Anyway, the best that can be shown is channel 8 which has some color but the screen is filled with grainy layer. I tried it with in my father room, which has the SCV TV point which they did it when they installed SCV last time, and it works perfectly fine when i just plugged in the wires.
I also tried abit of auto programming but it does not seem to be the cause of the problem. My room TV point has not have the SCV modified thing. It is the normal HDB TV point, but i theorized that this should work just fine and is not the problem.
What are the possible solutions. I hope not to spend too much to solve this thing. I just want to watch free to air channels in the comfort of my room.
Change wire? I dun think is the problem.
My room wire's got problem? I suspect cos my internet phone line got a technician guy told me my room line got some problem few months ago. But this is TV issue so i think maybe they are not related.
The cost of asking someone to fix if it due to line problem. I am afraid it will be too costly. but is this the root of the problem?
What are the other causes and solutions too? thanks.
your TV/FM box no longer works
last time all HDB flats got aerials at the top that connects to the TV/FM boxes for free to air channels but their performance is too good as they can also receive malaysia and indonesia channels
singapore government with $$$ in their minds disconnect all these aerials because malaysia and indonesia broadcast major sporting events in their free to air channels so now you can only use the scv box
TV/FM boxes = free fifa/ world cup
scv boxes = $$$
understand?
