Apart from the SNR/Signal Strength issue, does the card work for you? I 
just threw it out again and replaced it with a venerable stv0299 card, 
because it never reliably locked (it locked maybe every fourth time). 
This is with good signals, neither the stv0299 nor the stv090x cards 
have any problems with the signal. My stb0899 card is a technisat

 (0004558-2008-LV)

The EX-1010 is a bit short, so very long PCI cards like the full
featured DVB cards won't fit. There's also the EX-1011, which is the
same as the EX-1010 with a larger case, so long PCI cards fit.

I use both (on different computers), and they indeed work very well.

I ditched the wall wart (power supply) however and just supplied it
from the PC power supply.

 How much did you pay for these?  I found some prices around 180€, that sounds 
 surprisingly high to me.

digitec.ch (where I bought them) lists them at 217 and 257 CHF, which
are approximately 140 and 170 Euro.
