I was browsing around some other forums and I figured out why the box wasn't working. STBs output the signal as analog, not digital. Since the card I have is digital, it didn't pick anything up.
When I bypassed the STB, I got many clearQAM channels, but all of the premium channels that I pay for were not included; they are all encrypted.
There is one card I could buy which would allow me to see all my channels, but none in HD, only 480i. The number one reason I wanted a tuner card was to get HD. So that's a no-go.
What I need is an ATI DCT or the new Ceton coming out on March 31st. Both are out of my price range, so I think I will just wait and see how the market goes.
I really appreciate everything, you guys were a really big help.
