I have an Ultraview card (which is a Dvico Fusion HDTV Lite) and a

_should_ be pretty good.
This is slightly OT, but I have a VisionPlus and have *never seen the
reported SNR actually change*. I also seem to recall seeing comments
to the effect that the SNR reporting isn't working properly for the
VP. My experience is that I've had zero problems receiving all
channels even with a very marginal reported SNR.
The Twinhan cards do report signal strength and SNR but they
don't report the BER or uncorrected blocks statistics.
There is no standard for what any of the values mean however so
you can't really compare values between different cards.
Ah, so my "marginal" SNR may actually be fine (I was comparing with a
friend's card).
Thanks for the info.
Matthew.
