Unfortunately I can't help you getting this device to work but I can offer two 
(modest) pieces of advise:

a) the main trouble with devices that are "listed as Linux compatible" is that 
OEM tend to change some chips without changing the model's name. The result 
is that the stick you buy is no more the one that was compatible, even if it 
looks the same. Happened to me several time, and as most vendors have no idea 
about the revision number of what they sell...

b) I own a working USB stick that does DVB-C/T/T2, FM-Radio, AnalogTV and is 
really certified Linux compatible (although kaffeine did crash on an openSUSE 
13.1, I currently run it on a Debian Wheezy): Sundtek Media TV Pro .

Now it's European made so I don't know how easy it's to get it in the USA 
(your address seems to indicate you are there) and I don't know if you have 
special requirements, but you may ask at Sundtek.

Good luck

Thierry
