According to the ATSC specs, it looks similar enough to DVB that a lot of
the DVB software can be reused for ATSC.
There are some differences in the hardware as well as the specifications 
for service information. But I see no reason why the DVB API we are 
using for our driver could not be used for ATSC as well. 
I would welcome any discussion on this.
