FWIW, I've had very good results with Aver Media USB DVB-T tuners. These are a USB Pen-drive-style tuner and I have 2 - one is just a SD/HD DVB-T tuner and the other is a hybrid that includes analogue TV, DTV (SD/HD), composite and s-video inputs and FM radio. Aver supply (non-OS) drivers for them on their web sites as source tar balls with build scripts. I've had good success with both of them on 10.3 and they integrate nicely with Kaffeine. You need to have the kernel headers installed to build the driver modules. http://www.avermedia.com. Disclaimer - I have no affiliation with Aver Media or any of their distributors or affiliates.
