Soon the generation of watching TV 'a lot of ants' will disappear, and be replaced by digital TV broadcasts which are claimed to be clearer in 3 stages.However, people who are unfamiliar with the term digital TV must know some information about digital TV.The government through the Ministry of Communication and Information (Kemenkomifo) has echoed the term Analog Switch Off (ASO) since the Omnibuslaw Law was passed in October 2022.Director of Broadcasting at the Directorate General of Post and Information Technology at the Ministry of Communication and Information, Geryantika Kurnia, some time ago explained that digital TV is not a streaming service that uses the internet or cable TV subscriptions.He said digital broadcasts could be accessed using either analog TV or smart TV.With a note analog TV must be equipped with an additional device called a Set Top Box (STB).STB is an additional tool that is embedded in analog TV, so that it can capture digital-based TV broadcasts.Meanwhile, smart TVs must also be supported by Digital Video Broadcasting - Terrestrial second generation (DVB-T2) which is a development of the DVB-T digital standard.The Ministry of Communication and Informatics claims that the digital TV service produces clearer broadcasts, with better sound quality than analog broadcasts.With digital TV, the Ministry of Communication and Informatics also stated that people do not need to worry about blank spots or weak points of the signal that make the picture look bad and ghostly.The public also no longer needs to subscribe to cable TV or satellite dishes in places with weak signal points.Because digital TV broadcasts picture and sound clearly to the point where the signal can no longer be received.The Ministry of Communication and Information has also certified STB devices circulating in the country, so that they can be purchased directly by people who do not have digital TV.The following is a list of STB devices that already have official permission from the Ministry of Communication and Information, along with their selling price ranges at online stores.- NEXMEDIA - NA1300/DVB-T2 MPEG4 HD: Rp235 thousand - POLYTRON - PDV 600T2 : Rp391 thousand - Rp570 thousand - ICHIKO - 8000HD : Rp200 thousand - Rp257 thousand - AKARI - ADS-2230 : Rp355 thousand - Rp390 thousand - AKARI - ADS -210 : Rp400 thousand - Rp580 thousand - AKARI - ADS-168 : Rp389 thousand - Rp650 thousand - VENUS - Brio : Rp215 thousand - Rp380 thousand - TANAKA - T2 : Rp220 thousand - Rp265 thousandCNNIndonesia.com monitored the presence of STB in a number of online or e-commerce stores, Friday (25/3) afternoon.As a result, STB has been widely sold in various online stores.In a number of electronic stores, STB devices are also available, if people want to buy directly so they can at the same time know how to install them.Analog Switch-Off (ASO) will not happen simultaneously.In the first phase, starting April 30, 2022, ASO will be held in 56 regions on the islands of Java, Kalimantan, Sumatra, Sulawesi, Maluku and Papua.After the issuance of Permenkominfo number 11 of 2021, the migration schedule for analog TV to digital TV is in three stages.Stage 1 no later than 30 April 2022 Stage 2 no later than 25 August 2022 Stage 3 no later than 2 November 2022
