The HQCTi (High Quality Car Tuner internal) is the only high quality USB AM/FM radio tuner for in-vehicle use, and is made in Belgium from the highest quality components. The HQCTi uses standard PC connections like Molex power connector, USB to USB cable, and CD audio connections. The HQCTi also supports RDS/RDBS broadcast information such as the name of the current song playing and the artist. The compact design is intended to be mounted inside of your existing Carputer chassis. The tuner is designed to plug directly in to an existing 50 Ohm antenna with a Fakra connector. The optional Fakra to Motorola connector allows you to connect to the standard American style antenna connector. The HQCT is supported by both Centrafuse and Road Runner front end software programs.
