    I am looking to get a DVB-T USB stick on eBay, and am just wondering has anyone bought one from eBay and what are they like. I have tried a freeview box here and can receive roughly 45 tv channels(unencrypted) and about 50 radio channels. So if anyone has bought a freeview usb stick please tell me what they are like please!
    Thanks
    Paddy

    I bought a Freecom stick off ebay germany for 25€ recently. Works ok, but one is stuck with their own software, which is not overwhelming. With other programs my XP crashes continuously. :mad:

    Simply buy one which has blaze HDTV included. Blaze is nothing special but is the guarantie for a BDA driver. Bda driver is the precondition for alternative software like ProgDvb, GBPVR and so on.
    You should also forget the delivered small antenna. The small thing is only good if you are based near the transmitter.
