I don't understand what you mean. The Nokia 9802 is a standard satellite decoder/receiver.
The idea is that it will tune channels and then record them with myth.
A TV card that can tune/decode the satelite dish directly costs 250EUR and i don't know if it's possible to decode pay channels on linux.
I'm not really know much about this. Correct me if i'm wrong.
