Thank you very much for this answer, which certainly is correct. However, I've now had it happen twice in a relatively short row, and both times both the "PMT Data" as well as the "CA MESSAGE" as output by ca_zap have been identical "before" and "after" the stopping. So maybe there's something else that makes the descrambling stop. Does anyone see a similar behaviour? -- Andreas Trottmann Werft22 AG Tel +41 (0)56 210 91 37 Fax +41 (0)56 210 91 34 Mobile +41 (0)79 229 88 55
