Looks like no signal. Something else is wrong .. ?
Manu
I suppose it could be a weak signal. I am using an inline signal meter to
aim the dish and it shows a signal. How about polarization? It turns out
this LNB is Circular only (thank you Steven Toth). How do I get dvbtune or
other szap to use circular (L or R) polarity? Is this supported in v4l-dvb?
Also, How do I get the dst_test to work? I always get an error stating that
the frontend can't open /dev/dvb/adapter0/ca0 Even after I create that
node manually and set it's permissions I get that error with all invocations
of dst_test.
Thanks much!
