Hauppauge Single Hybrid Tuner Card Sensitivity

[amadams]

Can anyone tell me if there is a Hauppauge single hybrid tuner card with the same ATSC tuner sensitivity as the HVR-2250? I asked Hauppauge if any of the single tuner cards use the same chip as the HVR-2250 and they said no. I really want a better tuner in my upstairs PC but I don't want to spend the $ on another HVR-2250.

i have an older Vista-View Sabre that uses the same chip kinda...2250, if i'm not mistaken, uses a VIXS chip and this one is a pci dual tuner card..
i got it for a song at 25$ as a returned item at micro-center..it simply has the fastest channel changing i've ever seen...faster than most tv's!
it has same filtering adjustability as 2250 so it seems 2250 is just a newer dual version of same chipset with digital tuners....
search for the VIXS chipset to find similar cards...

hmm,come to think of it, the tuner is separate from the chipset..i believe they use a digital tuner on that one, [really tiny chip] and those are fast and precise..
many other cards have digital tuners, analog tuners are big metal boxes and digital tuners are tiny chips about the size of a pencil tip..[sometimes covered by flat metal shield]
the vista-view is a high quality old analog tuner...
