May be I should send him one? :)
I already thought about having one Nova card in may five card setup. The
other four have to be DVB-s because I need three for three independend
users and one for PW. So the forth card could be a Nova.

I am sure this is an argument. On ther other side the quality of the
DVB-s card is not to bad. I can probably live with that. The only
problem that annoys me currently is the OSD color change. I have to
reload to fix this.
