Another (budget) card gives the following: 10714 MHz H | signal 48568 | snr db33 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | LOCK 10729 MHz V | signal 49921 | snr dfec | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | LOCK 10743 MHz H | signal 46722 | snr df0e | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | LOCK In less than a second per transponder. With a virgin 2.6.12, I get locks on vertical channels only (reasonably fast, with no errors in the log that I remember). Horizontal channels don't tune. With these patches, I get no locks at all :( This is with a DSTCI card... Cheers, Allan.
