I think I understand. Are you saying that one can use the Nova-t *without*
hardware decoding? If so, then I guess this would almost lead me back to my
original enquiry - where do I go for advice on how to do this! (Although I
would admit that such discussion might not best be held in a "vdr" forum!)

I was quoted about £199 plus delivery.

I'd thought that I would not do this. My reasoning is that since dismantling
my motorised dish I would be unable to use the card to its full purpose (it
being no use for B-Sky-B of course) and that it is my aim to build a
two-card box solely for UK DTT - ie being able to view one DTT broadcast and
simultaneously record another.
Thanks for you advice.
Ron.
