Is this just a coyp paste leftover? Hm. When Mauro committed the patch, the description got lost: > - Can receive DVB-C and DVB-T.

So, to answer your question: The disabled code was copied from the H5 right above the new code, in the hope that if someone is going to fix analogue TV for the H5, he or she might just fix it for the HTC Stick as well, assuming that there's only little or no difference.
