    How do I get a TV tuner setup to read my AFN (Armed Forces Network) signal? The problem is the frequency it operates at is not the normal tv frequency. I was given the antenna but it needs a booster to work so I bought one from a friend it was a standard tv signal booster from Radio Shack. It didn't work due to different frequency. I bought the booster I needed from ebay and have it working on my tv but want to get rid of the tv and only use my pc so I can record shows.

    Which TV Tuner do you have?

    You might ask this question on the Hauppage Support website.

    I'm not familiar with the AFN TV signal - can you get it on a normal analog TV without any sort of converter?

    No converter just antenna and booster. I have no clue, I have tried to set the signal up multiple times and multiple settings without any luck. I exactly remember but normal booster went so up so a certain Mhz range and the AFN starts + 300Mhz or the highest range for a stardard booster from Radio Shack.
