CATV tuner
Hello all
Has anyone purchased or had experience of a CATV tuner kit from MTM Scientific Inc in the U.S.A. If so I would very much like to hear from them as to how or if they got theirs working. Cheers Mike |

Re: CATV tuner
If it's from the USA then it probably will be for the ATSC broadcast standard used there, not DVB-T as used in the UK.

Re: CATV tuner
It is sold as a radio astronomy receiver and is programmed to receive channel 37 at 608- 614 MHz. But they are tricky little blighters and I am on my second one which is why I need to speak to someone else who has tried one.
