In any case I may help with testing it. I think there is no such revision 4 RTL2830 which is RTL2831. I think you misunderstand. There is DVB-T demods RTL2830 and RTL2832. Then there is USB-bridge let's call it RTL28xxU. When you put USB-bridge and demod together you get chips called RTL2831U (USB-bridge + RTL2830 demod) and RTL2832U (USB-bridge + RTL2832 demod). Also many other Realtek demods exits which uses same USB-bridge. regards Antti -- http://palosaari.fi/
