MYTV digital terrestrial television DVB-T2 from Gunung Telapak Buruk transmitter aircheck in Seremban, Negeri Sembilan.


2 years ago, MYTV added digital terrestrial television (DTT) transmitters in Gunung Telapak Buruk and TM Kangar to cover Negeri Sembilan and Perlis respectively.

 

For Gunung Telapak Buruk, MYTV supposedly launched there somewhere in 2018, but the plan was suspended due to dispute with Telekom Malaysia (TM). So, I was disappointed of MYTV for not launching DTT transmitters Gunung Telapak Buruk back then. 

 

Before launching DTT transmitters in Gunung Telapak Buruk, MYTV was accessed via Bukit Tampin transmitter in Seremban, but not all locations could receive the signal from Bukit Tampin.


When I heard the news where Gunung Telapak Buruk would have DTT transmitters from MYTV, I was excited actually because I waited it for very long. 


In September 2023, MYTV began DTT operations in Gunung Telapak Buruk, the frequencies are CH25/UHF 506MHz (MUX A) and CH23/UHF 490MHz (MUX B). I performed my very first DVB-T2 DXing of these frequencies at my home in Balakong, Selangor, then Beranang in Selangor where is not far from Mantin, Negeri Sembilan.


Today on 8th June 2025, I stop in Seremban, Negeri Sembilan for lunch and radio DXing after having long drive from Johor Bahru. Coincidentally, I bring my portable DVB-T2 television receiver together, so I take this opportunity to check MYTV DTT signal from Gunung Telapak Buruk in Seremban before driving back home.


As I'm using short length mobile TV antenna, the signal strength of MYTV DTT signal from Gunung Telapak Buruk is quite low (38-43) in Seremban, Negeri Sembilan.


Here are my videos of receiving MYTV digital terrestrial television from Gunung Telapak Buruk in Seremban, Negeri Sembilan.

Videos are recorded near Jalan Sungai Ujong.
