I did reboot to 2.6.20-rc1, and kdetv worked but I didn't try to configure it further. I did dbl-chk the tx, its on, and only 3 miles away with 200 watts average power, so I really should be able to see it IF I can get the darned card into some sort of an ATSC mode. I have enough signal from ch5 that its crossmodding on several other channels, as its 100KW ERP & the same 3 miles away. But ch6, the digital, seems undetected. >Craig -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
