Much better for low SR's is the WinTV Nova HD. ZIF tuner chips are not known for great performance with low SR's, but at least the Conexant chip in the Nova is fully screened, unlike the Skystar's.

I notice the new Skystar S2 PCI has a 'tin box' type tuner, does anybody know which tuner chip is used in this one?
