The one with them missing cannot support a CI interface. Some of these cards have problems with certain multiswitches which do not draw any current - tuning to a V polarity will gradually "drift" to the H polarity. Sypmtom is initial good lock on V channel, with signal loss/extreme errors within a few seconds. Recent (>mid 2004?) cards are fine.
