Well, regarding the firmware: of course the channel decoder can't work
without it. Most recent cards have an eeprom for this and dont need
an external file to boot the DSP. I think some gpio setting needs to
be changed for this board. The hard thing is the different tuner application
which should cause poor sensitivity. The necessary changes go over more
than one module and are thus more that 2 hours of hacking.
I can do this, but first i want to get the radio with this chip
working and get the NICAM problems fixed.
