I don't know if my experience with a nova-t stick can help, but... I found similar problems with that stick (as far as I know, the nova-td is like two nova-t in the same stick), my problems where: * With windows driver (hauppauge) able to scan, tune and watch around 40 channels (tv/radio) without any problem * With linux drivers (linuxtv), able to scan only around 30 channels, and some of them where not watchable (high "unc" values). My signal strenght was something between 48-52% (depending on the frequency), so I assumed it was a problem of signal strenght (I bas obsessed with signal amplification options!). Last week, the guy from the antennas store came to my house and he solved the problem... installing an *attenuator**!! He told me that, despite software signal strength reported was around 50%, his equipment was reporting 90dB-100dB of strength, very high. After installing the attenuator, signal strength is around 15-21%, and I can tune and watch all channels without problem. Seems that the windows drivers (or the firwmware) are able to deal with high strength signal (I don't know about quality) and that cannot be done under Linux? Well, just my experience, to see if that may help you.
