Can DVB PC cards receive DVB-S2 signals?

I believe the Technotrend (?) can, but I'm not sure about that...

Hi:

The Viewsat 9000HD has this line in it specifications:

DVB-S2: Auto, ?, 3/5, 2/3, ?, 4/5, 5/6, 8/9, 9/10 (QPSK)

Looks like it might support DVB-S2 but the receiver costs about $450.00

cheers

Yes, the Technotrend S2-3200 receives the RTN DVB-S2 channels.

 

[Mr Tony]

I wonder if the Pansat 9200 can. It has DVB-S2 as an option

 

[pwrsurge]

I can confirm that the Sonicview 8000HD has the option to receive DVB-S2 as well. However, I was never able to test it yet since i don't know any active DVB-S2 transponders. Could someone let me know which transponders i can use to test (if any)

Thanks
