Michael: Thanks for the quick reply. I followed your HowTo but when I tried the atscscan.. I got the following message "main:2228: FATAL: failed to open '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0': 16 Device or resource busy" I then unloaded saa7134-dvb using the force option (rmmod saa7134-dvb -f) and reloaded it. The scan process then started. I tried both the ATSC and NTSC frequences on BOTH antenna ports on the card, and didn't get one single channel defined in my channels.conf Just to avert any issues about getting a signal, without moving my antenna, I plugged in a ATSC STB and was able to receive 4 different channels ranging in strength form 65% to 85% Any idea's what I doing wrong? Am I loaded the drivers in the wrong order? BTW, I'm located in Toronto, Canada Regards, John On 2/28/06, Michael Krufky <mkrufky@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > John Ferlatte wrote: > > Michael: > > > > I apologize in advance if asking you about the KWORLD ATSC 110 is > > inapproriate, however I see you name everywhere in discussion threads > > as you appear to be the developer.
