bttv identifies the cards by the PCI subsystem ID.  Might be pinnacle uses the
same ID for both pro/nonpro.  Hauppauge does it this way too, _all_ Hauppauge
cards have the same ID.  The same is true for other vendors too.  That's why
bttv has the extra radio insmod option.  There is simply no easy, generic
way to figure out if a particular card is the version with or without radio.

The same problem exists for stereo/non-stereo.  Autodetection works a bit
better here because the TV cards often use i2c-connected stereo decoder chips
(which show up on the i2c bus scan).
