After connecting that USB stick to my PC, I've checked typing lsusb. The output is:
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0572:c68a Conexant Systems (Rockwell), Inc. EyeTV Stick
Then, I installed typing in terminal sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get install w-scan. Then typing w_scan, the output is the following:
w_scan
w_scan version 20170107 (compiled for DVB API 5.11)
guessing country 'ES', use -c <country> to override
using settings for SPAIN
DVB aerial
DVB-T Europe
scan type TERRESTRIAL, channellist 4
output format vdr-2.0

Info: using DVB adapter auto detection.

ERROR: Sorry - i couldn't get any working frequency/transponder
Nothing to scan!!
Then, I tried the another way: I typed in terminal sudo apt-get install dvb-apps and I installed Kaffeine from Ubuntu Software.
After that, I opened Kaffeine, at the top of the window, I clicked Television and then Configure Television, at the tab Device 1 I set up for the signal of my country. And finally, at the top of the window, clicked Television and Channels, and click the button Start Scan, the output is that it coudn't find any channel, so the list of channels is empty.
I think the driver for the device is missed. Does anyone advice me?
Answering to @chili555 from the comment, I typed lsmod | grep dvb. The output is the following:
dvb_usb_dvbsky 24576 0
dvb_usb_v2 49152 1 dvb_usb_dvbsky
m88ds3103 40960 1 dvb_usb_dvbsky

rc_core 65536 5 dvb_usb_v2,rc_total_media_in_hand_02,cec,dvb_usb_dvbsky
And sudo dmesg | grep -i dvb, the output is the following:

According to that, the firmware is missed.
Following the steps of @chili555: After rebooting, I typed sudo dmesg | grep -i dvb and the output is the same as the previous output in above but without lines about firmware. Then, I typed w_scan and I got the same error in the output, later I typed again sudo dmesg | grep -i dvb and the output is a little different: "downloading firmware"...
