Commodity-type VHF/UHF DTV tuner can, 10dB max NF, single conversion using
(e.g.) Infineon TUA6034 MOPLL chip, including discrete production-aligned
tracking filter, 6MHz SAW filter and ADC-ready IF output, but not including
demod., about $3.50 volume price from European or Asian manufacturer.
Alignment-free DTV tuner integrated on product main board, UK design as
used in various European STB/iDTVs/DVRs. Multi-carrier D/U ratio enhanced
for US OTA environment, NF 5dB max, otherwise as above, volume BoM cost
less than $4.50.
Can only infer that the CE manufacturers (including LG) aren't interested
in making a product that works...
