I was using the ves1820-based FF card for one year successfully (no problem on any frequency). Then it begins to have problems with some frequencies. At first I assumed physical cable problems, but it wasn't the case... From day to day it got worse, up to that even the former good frequencies have become distorted. To check if it is my cable connection's fault or a hardware failure of the ves1820, I got a stv0297-based DVB-C card and _every_ frequency available was _very_ good again, with the same cable. So I assume the ves1820-based board has some kind of hardware failure which is raising steadily. Patrick. -- Mail: patrick.boettcher@xxxxxxx WWW: http://www.wi-bw.tfh-wildau.de/~pboettch/
