The 2031 has a feature to identify itself. I have requested the vendor 
to provide some info on that. Not yet received the feedback from them 
for the 20xx. For the newer DVB-T cards, there was a similar fix needed. 
It would be something similar. I did not want to do a trial and error 
method, but preferred to wait for information.
