People need to have a Set Top Box (STB) tool to enjoy digital tv broadcasts.These devices are different from the tools or STBs used in pay tv subscribers.In other words, pay TV subscribers also need to have this STB if they want to enjoy digital TV broadcasts.The Ministry of Communication and Information (Kominfo) in a presentation via an Instagram account said that people still need a tool called STB DVB-T2 or digital video broadcast terrestrial second generation.Its function is to be able to receive free to air (FTA) digital TV broadcasts.Meanwhile, TV broadcasts, which initially only used UHF antennas, will later require a DVB-T2 STB.Next, it is also explained why pay tv STB cannot be used to enjoy digital tv services.The reason is because the broadcasting technology is different.STB on pay TV is usually DVB-C (connection using cable), DVB-C (satellite), or DVB-IPTV (internet protocol).Meanwhile, digital TV broadcasts use DVB-T2 (terrestrial) with a connection using a regular home antenna or UHF.However, if the specifications of the television sets of pay TV broadcast subscribers are capable of capturing digital TV broadcasts, of course there is no need for a DVB-T2 STB.The first characteristic is not a convex sailing tube tv.Because, all tube tv is analog.So to make it able to receive digital broadcasts, it must be equipped with an additional set top box.Not all flat screen tvs are digital tvs.The feature of flat screen tvs that can receive digital broadcasts is that they have a digital broadcast search feature.Usually this can be known through the "tuning" feature which has the option to search for analog television (ATV) or digital (DTV) broadcasts.Characteristics of channel search using the ATV feature, the received image is not clear, which is often called "antling".But the search with the DTV feature immediately gives a clear picture.Searching for digital broadcasts with the DTV feature can be done automatically or manually.For LCD or LED flat screen TVs that do not support digital broadcasting, you can use an additional set top box.In addition, not all TVs that have a digital broadcast search feature support digital broadcasts in Indonesia.This is because digital broadcasting in Indonesia uses the DVB-T2 (Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestrial second generation) standard.DVB-T2 is a tool for receiving digital broadcasts.This information is usually on the box or ask the seller if the TV supports DVB-T2.Before you can enjoy digital broadcasting, make sure that you are in an area that already has a digital broadcast signal.Use a UHF antenna inside or outside your home.Here are a few things to do to find out the signal for Digital TV channels in your location:- Download the Digital TV Signals app on the Google Play Store or Apple Store - Once installed on your smartphone device, open the app - The app will ask for your location access permission, then select allow - The display will change to a map according to your location, where you are - At the bottom left there is a Legend column.If opened, the column will provide information on where the location of the digital tv signal is with strong to weak descriptions - Check on what color map appears
