This is the second spare card during the Broadcast Flag (DRM) "Scare" in 2006. The picture is from the website, since I don't want to open the box.

It is mainly for Linux, but there are some there are some Windows drivers (and installation directions) floating around: http://bit.ly/9gCkUZ

Does this require a converter box?

Mar 19th, 2010 at 3:44:24 PM PDT by

I'm not entirely sure what you mean...

It can receive terrestrial (over the airway, OTA) broadcasts in HD without a converter box. It can also decode QAM, which is typically unencrypted cable.

If you are receiving premium cable (or your cable company is a pain), you will need their box to decrypt your signal.

Does that help?

not true delivery confirmation is always available especially international shipping.

It might very well be, but it is expensive and I can't (not willing to) offer it.
