Interesting to hear this - I'd have thought that DVB would have eliminated the regional variations as there would be no more issues with PAL/NTSC or problems with audio/video channel separation. But anywaym the Nova-T cards work in oz anyway, dont know about other cards. > Which cities in Australia are using VHF? http://www.aba.gov.au/tv/digitaltv/ Lots of good info there including frequencies (VHF + UHF).
