    I don't know what else he may have in his bag of tricks to annoy parliament with

    There needs to be many more independently minded MP's

    shaking things up in parliament.

    I think/hope perhaps people are beginning to see that there is very little difference between the policies of the 2 parties that always win

    always more tax, more bureaucracy, more convoluted laws, hypocrisy

    more censorship and less overall freedoms. 

    Brexit the Covid debacles (especially),Ukraine,climate change alarmism and now Gaza/Israel have brought that into sharp contrast  at least for me.

    smart TV ? 32" from a from around 2k baht

     a 32inch smart tv for 2000baht  can you please point me in the direction of this bargain.

     

    I believe that @scottiejohn has a TV with built in digital tuner he just needs a suitable old school antenna pointing at the strongest signal

    to receive the free to air Thai digital DVB-T2 signals in all their glory

    some are HD and some have dual soundtracks

    (often original soundtrack so a Holywood film is in English  but a Chinese film would be in Chinese etc) 

    some stations have subtitles but I found then to be miniscule on screen maybe my setup.

     

    I have not found any radio stations again my be my setup 

    I'd be interested to know if someone can get radio.

    ccording to this table, Army CH 7 transmits on E7, which is about 174 MHz (high VHF). Note that if this info is correct,

    I think that info may have been correct back in the 1990's

    now they use the 500-800-ish MHZ range.

     

     

    power level,frequencies and compass pointing for all the Thai TV transmitters.

    It works but buffering like heck from multiple TV sources for certain channels and other channels OK..

     

    May help if you name the channels you are interested in/have trouble with.

     

    I regularly watch NHK world direct from Japan  NASA tv from US and Red Bull tv from god knows where with my NT fibre each of them has good and bad days and worst day none are watchable, there are just to many variables in the streaming chain to know where the fault actually lies.

     

    That's why I have an extensive collection of TV shows and Movies on my NAS server + a satellite dish and regular old school tv antenna 😋

    Do you happen to know what the aerial specs I mentioned earlier mean?

    I had good results with this one D15E from Amorn (Pattaya) until they changed the frequencies in my area after the 600mhz sell off then there was interference and lucky for me building management installed an even "bigger" antenna and filter.

    just plug it in and move it around till you get good picture

    Not quite that simple with a digital signal as there needs to be a signal for the receiver to lock onto before a picture is displayed.

    There is an antenna pointer direction finder and frequency specs for any location in Thailand

    somewhere on this website

    https://digital.nbtc.go.th/

    I'll post proper url when back on my computer.

     

    There may also be a need for

    3/4/5 G mobile phone signal filter at the antenna depending on the frequency used in your location.
