Tuner card for FIOS
What is a decent card to use with FIOS? I have a couple LCD TV's with digital tuners and they usually get a bunch of channels beyond what a analog receiver will go right over the line. Of course the channel numbers are unusable. Usually 1-232 or something like that. I just bought my media extenders and the software but I don't have a tuner.

Thanks!

Neil

You need a QAM tuner for the digital channels. In my fios setup I am pulling in local hd channels plus music.

Is that all you are getting in Digital? Nothing else huh? With the QAM tuner are you getting HD quality?

Thanks,

Neil

With my QAM tuners I get the locals and music. I did just start getting the Fishing Network though. I pick the locals up in both HD and SD.
