The USB tv tuner I thought I would get for cheap is

If it will not work, what does work with tvtime ?
PS: I was thinking of watching digital VHF/UHF broadcasts.
I used to use tvtime several years ago, when it was strictly an
analog system. I haven't followed later developments. The url also
says the device is analog. I don't know how many analog tv signals
will still exist in your area; perhaps fm radio.

Hi Stan, Doug and John,
I found this RTL-SDR FM+DAB DVB-T USB 2.0 Digital TV Stick RTL2832U +
R820T Tuner Receiver at:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/RTL-SDR-FM-DAB-DVB-T-USB-2-0-Digital-TV-Stick-RTL2832U-R820T-Tuner-Receiver-/222264849114?hash=item33c00472da:g:jfcAAOSwYIxX7Ghk
I have not ordered it yet, pending your feedback about it.
See this url on DVB-T:

Also note that the OS requirements (as per the spec) do not include
Linux, if that makes any difference to you.
Also note that the ad (at least one I looked at) is in French--maybe
it works in France.
OTOH: For $6.95, what do you have to lose?

But the driver rtl2832 is reported working in Ubuntu.
Must not be all that hard to port it to Fedora.
Also, it is a module in my currently running kernel.
And report on page https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1905057
that it works.
