[mythtvnz] What DVB-T tuners are people using?

[Andy Gardner, ZL3AG]

Even before the recent channel changes, CHCH EIT was only now/next on some channels.

Right now (of the channels I have enabled)...

7 days:

Maori Television
TVNZ DUKE+1
HGTV
Te Reo
eden+1
PRIME
Parliament

Now/next:

TVNZ 1
TVNZ 2
TVNZ 1 +1
TVNZ 2 +1
Three
ThreePlus1
Bravo
eden
Rush
