Could the experienced DXers please recommend the best TBS DVB card? I need something that will do the following:
1) work with EBS Pro and Crazyscan and do blindscan
2) lock transponders quickly
3) come with great locking stability (picture not breaking up on marginal signals)
4) show correct SNR and frequency
So far I've tested TBS 5925, TBS 8922, TBS 6522 and TBS 5922 but there's something I don't like about these:
TBS 5925 locks every marginal signal but slowly compared to TBS 8922. The 8922 locks very fast and seems to lock everything like 5925 but shows incorrect SNR and frequency. The TBS 6522 is generally poor, not really locking any marginal signal and blindscan is not supported. The 5922 is OK but showing incorrect SNR and frequency during blindscan, which is slow.
I have also tested DVB Sky 960S which is OK for scanning but is not locking marginal signals unlike the 5925 or 8922.
So I was thinking maybe TBS 6903 could be good in the above mentioned points but I didn't find a video which would show how fast does it lock a transponder. For example my 5925 takes 2-3 seconds to do that in EBS Pro, while TBS 8922 can do it in just 1 second.
