Not necessarily...  IIRC only the 350 has the FM radio functionality?

Support for that is Coming Soon.  Hans Verkuil on the ivtv-list has a hacked
driver that works, and I just hacked up a driver that supports radio mode.

Unfortunately in the process I completely disabled TV functionality.  :)  So
right now there's no way to switch between FM and TV without reloading modules.

I now have an idea how to get it to work without switching modules, I'm going to
implement that soon and if it works post it to ivtv-devel.
