Abstract

A system and method for forming an external tuner device and initializing the external device includes an enclosed over-the-air tuner housing having a over-the-air television tuner therein, an input power connector coupled to the housing, an antenna input coupled to the housing, a tuner signal output coupled to the housing and a dual over-the-air tuner circuit module disposed within the tuner housing in communication with the input power connector, the antenna input and the tuner signal output. The dual over-the-air tuner circuit module generates a first tuner signal from a first tuner and a second tuner signal from a second tuner and communicates the first tuner signal and the second tuner signal through the tuner signal output.
