+
+I initially bought it because i wanted to play around with software
+defined radio on the cheap [#]_ but haven’t had the time. As this thingy
+is originally an DVB-T stick i wanted to try this out first. As it
+contains a fairly common RTL2832U chip, it shouldn’t be that much of a
+problem. It turns out it is ...
+
+This Pseudo-script running under Arch Linux.
+
+install and configure the Hama Nano DVB-T Stick
+===============================================
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ #?/bin/sh
+ yaourt -S dvb-usb-rtl2832u-openpli
+ modprobe dvb_usb_rtl2832u
+ pacman -S linuxtv-dvb-apps
+ #find a good place for the antenna
+ scan /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t/de-Berlin | tee ~/.mplayer/channels.conf
+
+ # you can also use the most current sender file from :
+ # wget -O de-Berlin http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/_attachment?target=dvb-utils%2Fchannels.conf%28Berlin%29
+ # scan de-Berlin | ~/.mplayer/channels.conf
+
+ mplayer "dvb://Das Erste"
+
+If you do not live in Berlin(duh), have a look through /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t folder or have a look at http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/dvb-utils#Basisdaten for more accurate results.
