I have WindowsXP with a KWorld Global TV Terminator modelTV7131PCI TV
Card.
I don't get a lot of channels that my other tv gets (using antenna).
Also, the frequency fine tuner doesn't improve the fuzzy channels.
When I fine tune, it goes from viewable state to black screen with no
noticable differance in between.

Do I have a crappy card or can I expect the same from a differant one?

This one cost me about $35. Doesn't have onboard video card. Do you
recommend a differant tuner card? Whats my best bet from about the
same cost?

Anything esle I should know?

Thanks...

Only free air analog broadcasting will cease. Cable TV will still have it
available.
