After a bit more investigation, I think the problem is that these devices now have a new chipset - the vendor id and product id are 0x14aa:0x022a. I found this post http://lists.zerezo.com/video4linux/msg10122.html but don't really understand it all. I think I need the new firmware (dvb-usb-wt220u-zl0353-01.fw ?) plus a patch to the kernel module (but where do I get this?). Stephen.
