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: http://www.highdefforum.com/local-hdtv-info-reception/71105-dvb-t-available-usa-las-vegas.html 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.
