TV tuner recommendation

[shokbakgoc]

not much choices avaliable locally~
avertv is ok and quite cheap~

if u using lappy, or need to bring it ard, switch between pc, then get usb one lor~

if using desktop with spare pci slot or pci-e, then get internal one lor~
usually cheaper for same functions~
the extra money can be used to get cable or a powered antenna~

can recommend which powered antenna? where to buy? those rabbit ears antenna from sls don't seem good?

no recommendation as there is no guarantee what you will receive even with the recommended antenna~
some ppl can receive everything with juz the default antenna(comes with usb tuners) or those $3 $4 non-powered rabbit ears antenna~
while some ppl not able to receive anything even with a powered antenna~

maybe u wanna go SLT and take a look~

kim teck #01-09 sells quite many kinds of tv antenna~
kaichin on 3rd floor has some too~

i got a question

Are those digital tv tuner plug and play? Meaning just plug into usb port and can start searching for tv channels. Don't need to connect any cables from the tv point right?

No FM though . Ya need to find ya " best spot " out at the window for the antenna , wrong placement will result in poor reception or TV mobile nia .

Used a 5m USB extension cable to hook up with this tuner so it can stretch its antenna out to my window . Anything above 10ft will need a USB booster type extension cable . Bought my extension cable for $7 at mustafa .

Hi where in SLS got sell this product? How much? Does this support Vista? Thanks!
