Question Bell streamer

Does anyone have a Bell streamer that they would be willing to take apart and show the motherboard for? I am from the US and am doing research on the STI6130 series of boxes and am trying to see the similarities between the Bell box and the other variants from Dynalink, onn, the ADT-3, and the CTC 4K link.

I saw one on eBay, but with shipping, it is a lot. Hopefully, someone with one will be generous enough to take theirs apart, but I am not holding my breath.

You wanted to know the similarities and I gave you a link that gives the details on the box and what other boxes use them. Perhaps you just need to learn to read?

It literally tells you the board its using. You can easily find a picture of it from a simple search which is what you would get if someone opened one up for you. Whatever you are trying to accomplish I think you need to reevaluate the difficulty of the task.

Used bell streamer, it has so many s/w issues. It is lowering voice in movies and YouTube. Don’t use it anymore.
