Goodbye hazy signals, hello HD!

- Quennie S. Bronce -

CEBU, Philippines - Ever since TV manufacturers have made High Definition (HD) television sets available in the market and foreign television shows have bragged that they are shown on HD or Full HD, Cebuanos have been curious about what HD is.

Those who understood what HD was and could afford the HD or Full HD television sets did not waste time to grab the latest in technology. Most were disappointed though since they could not maximize the capabilities of their television set. There was no HD service provider in Cebu yet. For a while, those who had television sets with HD capability had to contend with the services provided by conventional cable providers.

But snowy, hazy cable television signals are now a thing of the past with the entry of Cignal Digital TV, the first HD service provider in Cebu.

Cignal Digital TV is the first satellite pay TV broadcast to offer HD TV nationwide. It also has the most HD channels that cover the varied interests of viewers. Cignal’s HD offerings include HBO, Star Movies, National Geographic and the History Channel, as well as digitally-enhanced formats of Playhouse Disney, ESPN, Star Sports and Sony Entertainment.

Those who do not have an HD or Full HD television set yet need not worry because they can still experience digital TV viewing as Cignal also offers Standard Definition (SD) channels. Cignal subscribers will also get to enjoy audio channels, specifically the top radio stations in Manila like Magic 89.9, NU 107, Max 103.5 and DZRH. And since Cignal works on Direct Broadcast Satellite technology, Cignal can be made available anywhere, whether in the remotest mountain barangay or in a faraway island.

Make the switch now and enjoy clear, crisp images and the best audio that digital TV viewing can offer with Cignal Digital TV.

Cignal Digital TV is offered by MediaScape Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of MediaQuest Holdings, Inc., an investee company of the PLDT Group of Companies
