The card receives NTSC and ATSC broadcasts. Would not be of much use outside
the of US (except in Canada, of course).

In the meantime, the card is supported. I am not sure if it works
out-of-the-box, but with current drivers from linuxtv.org, the card is
working and recognised by MythTV.
And there are dvb developers who consider the card's tuner, an xceive
xc5000, as state-of-the-art for OTA reception.
My conclusion: This is really an excellent deal.
