A decent desktop antenna should work fine too (say a Terk). A plain old flat cable FM antenna isn't very useful though (like the one included with the Hauppauge cards); it's a drag to move around to get optimal reception (I did this for awhile until it became too annoying). I use a modified version of wmtune with my Hauppauge card. I don't used the ports version, but presumably it works (/usr/ports/audio/wmtune). The only thing I clearly remember fixing (as opposed to new features) was getting it to behave with fxtv (which I have running almost all the time, so it matters to me). I think it was just one or two additional ioctl's (or maybe just some reordering of the ioctl's). I'm too lazy to check my changes at the moment, but I can if the ports version of wmtune has problems (and I'll submit a patch if that's the case and people need it).
