Looks like an add-on product for those who already have a tv tuner hooked up to their tv.

It's a plug and Play PC tuner for OTA DT/HD and comes with an Antenna
For USB 2.0

I don't know if I would want a tuner that costs $20, but who knows. It might be good. Definitely do a little research on the product before you buy. I've got 3 ATCS tuners (Fusion gold 5, 7, and Directivo DVR) and they all work differently. The Fusion 7 will get 80% signal on NBC, and the 5 only gets 65%. My DVR's tuner doesn't even pick up a signal. All three are hooked up to the same antenna and signal amp.

Yeah, and I would imagine the antenna that's supplied isn't the greatest quality

People looking into OTA DTV channels should check out what's available their area with a site like http://www.antennaweb.org/aw/welcome.aspx as well.

It's only 20.00 after rebate and the software is worth the price
I use the reliable rabbit ears from the old TV and get 100 % from 25 miles
but the software sucks so recordings pause and skip frames
So maybe it's a Vista/Wintv problem so Hauppauge :censor

Me and Impala are coming over to kick your a$$ soon :Boxing

Looks just like this

Yeah, one day, Happyage shall feel our wrath! :twisted:

I dunno, the deal there sounds ok, the reviews on it are mixed, so you never know. Different people with different machines in different areas will always have different experiences.

Do any of those tuners come with optional aluminum foil for added reception? :Joker

The antenna that came with Fusion 7 USB is basically a cars FM anetenna. I only use it when I'm on the go, but it works just fine. :Kool
