We'll see what I actually get from Brooktree. I haven't ventured to look under the label of the tuner module to see what's on the TV/dbx board, but I'm guessing it's pretty close to what's on the hardware eval kit Brooktree sells. There's a striking parallel between the picture of the eval board, and the Wincast board :=) I'll pass along the info when I get it. louie
