Are there specific areas in the philippines where the signal of ABS-CBN is very weak?

Question

please specify..

Answer 1

ABS-CBN is a strong network and the only places it has weak signals are the places where the telecom engineers called it far-flung. If you look at the Philippine map, these are the outskirts of the archipelago.The islands east of Bicol and Quezon provinces, south of Palawan, south of Tawi Tawi, north of Cagayan.

Other are places in small valleys blocked by mountains like those places in the Cordilleras and the inland Mindanao, and eastern Sierra Madre.

To resolve these blocking difficulties, TV networks installed what engineers called repeaters on top of the mountains. The signals will be transmitted in different frequencies that's in some areas ABS CBN is received from the other channels instead of Channel 2.

But nowadays, because of the satellite technologies and the presence of providers like Dream, it is almost 100% of the places in the entire Philippine archipelago can receive ABS CBN programs.

I hope my explanation will satisfy your curiousity.
