+In this context, RF tuner is radio receiver circuit between antenna and
+demodulator. It receives radio frequency (RF) from the antenna and converts that
+received signal to lower intermediate frequency (IF) or baseband frequency (BB).
+Tuners that could do baseband output are often called Zero-IF tuners. Older
+tuners were typically simple PLL tuners inside a metal box, whilst newer ones
+are highly integrated chips without a metal box "silicon tuners". These controls
+are mostly applicable for new feature rich silicon tuners, just because older
+tuners does not have much adjustable features.
