Discovered something interesting earlier this week on my connection of a Samsung B530 LCD via a local analogue signal for SABC1,2,3, ETV, etc.
This is for a interim period as installation of the HD PVR satellite to commence in the next few weeks.
To my surprise the signal of SABC1, 3 and ETV not bad at all as this is via analogue grid setup.
SABC2 signal appears more blocky and TELEDATA appears. Any reason for this and possible option to rectify. The channel frequency is correct. Area of installation = Northern Suburb.

SABC2 is the worst channel off the Tygerberg transmitter. What antenna are you using? Do you have a mast amp? Probably not worth spending money on the antenna setup, if you are getting the decoder soon...

Thanks for the reply. The antenna is the normal ''braai'' rooster grid :) without a amplifier. I found it interesting that the TELEDATA only appears on SABC2.
