You need to add the following line to /etc/modprobe.conf (I could
have got
this wrong but it seems to have worked wonders for me, thanks so much
Patrick!)
options dvb-usb-dib0700 force_lna_activation=1
Good luck!
Thanks! Now I've got perfect signal on all muxes:)
Is the nova-t 500 now fully usable?
Is the card a completely replacement for two older pci cards? Ie, is
it possible to get the full data from two transponders at the same
time, not only data from two channels?
