I found out why. One of a number of confirmations but this one in the

Dear Bob Miller,
The price of the 5th generation VSB chip is almost same as that of the
4th generation. Furthermore VSB portion is a little of a material
cost of STB. Major portion come from HD decoder/CPU chip and can-type tuner.
The STB business division of LGE launched a few STB models in the USA
market but they retreated from the STB busniess due to little profit.
I will do my every best to help XXXXXXXXX or any manufacturers providing
STB to you using our 5th generation VSB chip enhancing the reception
performance of their STB.
Best regards.
