tda18272 is a variant of tda18212. Adding support for ATSC there is as
trivial as:
http://git.linuxtv.org/mchehab/experimental.git/commitdiff/14d276136221f98e2351841adb841cd420665090
Anyway, I just added support for ub435q v3 on my experimental tree:
http://git.linuxtv.org/mchehab/experimental.git/shortlog/refs/heads/ub435q_v3
For now, I tested only 8VSB modulation. I'll test later for ClearQAM.

Mauro
