A DVB-S card produced by TechniSat based on the B2C2 FlexCop Chipset. Early versions contained the STV0299 Demodulator, newer ones the MT312.

Some early versions are known to have heat problems, but as far we know this issue has been solved in the meantime.

This card is known to work quite well under Linux.
