    I have the tuner. It comes with an antenna that is about 6 inches tall, 1 inch wide, and 1/4 inch thick with a suction cup of sorts at the bottom to make it stand up. It also comes with a small cable that had the weird port on one end and a coaxial cable input on the other.

    I also cannot understand, nowhere written- about tv tuner-

    does it work in eastern europe supports PAL system?

    one said it is an expresscard and it is removable (when not needed, or may be connected to another laptop or pc), another answer was it is not removable. what is right?

    who has hp dv7t notebook with tv tuner and how its look like what features it has?
    I need it for connectin mini DV and VHS camera and record video from cassete to laptop and record tv programs so on.

    which is faster, multisystem tv tuner for that purpose?

    that can be connceted to pc and laptop both.?
    aver tv hybrid volar hx?
    or avertv nano express?
    or?

    screw in type.

    so the 'dongle' (lol) has 2 sides - one with a small port that connects to the laptop and the other end is a COAX connector which you 'screw' your cable wire into.
