Location is limit (Cologne / Bonn area) between official "reception with indoor antenna reception versus external antenna".
It will receive all the channels; using the supplied aerial interference depending on weather conditions at individual stations, with an active indoor antenna (35, - EUR Class) always good reception; with a stripped coax cable (15cm copper core at the end of Expose) slightly better reception than the supplied adapter.
The software is OK; the post-processing of files with ProjektX / Cuttermaran / IfoEdit works fine.
The currently newest driver / software (WinTV v7.0.31347 / 3.2) seems to me better than the previous (faster switching time).
Drivers / Software also work seamlessly with the older Stick.
Incomprehensible / awkward to query the original CD during the upgrade (but you do indeed extremely rare). Not tested whether it will come with an ISO image (if one does not have a physical drive on the computer).
Am satisfied.
