My femon (dvb-utils on my Gutsy Mythbuntu) does not have the -H option. It's probably too old. I shall look at the hg sources. The first script created a nice baseline and comparaison tool for the before and after masthead amp installation. A 26-dB masthead amp + associated in-line power supply gave me 20-25% better signal strength, and most importantly brough all the BER to zero. http://www.youplala.net/~will/htpc/signaltest/ I'm happy :o) Nico _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
