Do you have a FTA dish hooked up to either a FTA pc card or a stand-alone FTA receiver?

BUT, MY 17 YR OLD SON had to nail it with the tractor, so now that beautiful BUD in my avatar is a pile of spare parts....
HOWEVER: Waiting to be added: 10' mesh, 8' mesh Winegard, Corotor II, 36" HD Venture actuator, 24" HTS actuator, GI 920 4DTV. Saving money for: HD FTA receiver & PCI HD SAT card for PC.
Apparently my shot at the BirdView fell thru.
If anyone knows of one near the Memphis area (within 200 miles or so) let me know, eh? |

Someone just posted about this software for Windows in the PC DVB discussion: http://www.satelliteguys.us/free-air...pvr-2-0-a.html SichboPVR - Free DVB-S/C/T and ATSC dvr software for Windows
My stuff is all Linux based - maybe others will chime in.

No - just sat card.
See their 'known working devices' section on the website.
