Hmm, weird, I added the enhanced code because thats what hauppauge appeared to 
be doing, and I thought it seemed to work better at the time.... however 
looks like that isn't the case. I've no problem if you want to rip it out.

BTW: I finally tracked down why I was having extreme lock problems on one site 
- satellite installer problem - they'd mounted the arm with the LNB on it out 
of position!! (and they claimed they'd tested it!)
