[QUOTE="customized, post: 611698, member: 91565"] Hey there Andrew H, I photographed my old card before the RMA. The returned card had a different prefix on the model number. Unfortunately I was too amped up to try the new card, so I didn't photograph it before installing. However if you zoom in on the [URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/ImageGallery.aspx?CurImage=15-100-044-S03&ISList=15-100-044-S99%2c15-100-044-S02%2c15-100-044-S03%2c15-100-044-S04%2c15-100-044-S05&S7ImageFlag=1&Item=N82E16815100044&Depa=0&WaterMark=1&Description=AVerMedia%20AVerTVHD%20Duet%20PCTV%20tuner%20%28A188%29%20MTVHDDUET%20PCI-Express%20x1%20Interface"]image[/URL] (newegg.com) you can see the model number as "A188-B 0405A188-C99". I believe my first card was a 0403A instead of 0405A. But don't quote me, I don't have the card or picture on me right now. Signal strength is good, just as solid as my ATI TVW650PCI, maybe better, 90+ on signal strength & quality mostly, except CBS which can vary, dipping into the mid 70s at worst. I haven't tried 1.1, stability is key for me. I've messed with early releases for years but now that this rig serves all our electronic entertainment I have to hold back and keep it stable. It has actually not appeared to my OS and Media Portal a couple times. But only if I open up the bios before XP comes up. Kind of funny, but that's the only common thread and issue I've run into so far. The card is much more stable than the previous version. [/QUOTE]
