Hi Ralf

Yes, you would need to join the BATC.

But we are still awaiting delivery of the 400 tuners, so you haven't missed out. We'll announce on the Forum when they are available.

Hello Dave,

do you have an idea of the price of the NIM and the PCB? In the BATC shop I have not found it.

Thank you very much.

Hi Ralf

The PCB will probably be the same price as the MiniTiouner PCB (currently £4.50 + postage) and the tuner price will depend on the duty charges that we have to pay. Probably under £20.

Once the tuners arrive, we will put them on the shop.

Hello Dave,

will the members be notified by email when the modules are available? I do not want to miss them :-)

Regards,

Ralf

I will post on the forum under the shop section and here when we get notification that they are being shipped from China and when they actually arrive

We do have 400 tuners on order so can't believe we will sell them in the first few days! We will also be ordering enough PCBs to cover initial demand but we can always order more of them on 1 week's notice.

If you need a good linear for DVB-T for moonbounce etc. then there is an interesting auction coming up! 600watts enough?
