Odd today no problem with radio and kernel log.
Anyway here are a few entries from transponder.ini which I use for dvbscan:
C 362000000 6900000 NONE QAM64		OK
C 370000000 6900000 NONE QAM64		OK
C 378000000 6900000 NONE QAM64		OK
C 386000000 6900000 NONE QAM64		NOT OK
C 394000000 6900000 NONE QAM64		OK
C 402000000 6900000 NONE QAM256		NOT OK
C 410000000 6900000 NONE QAM64		OK
C 426000000 6900000 NONE QAM64		OK

I noticed when using Win32 the signal strenght is very poor on the non working transponders for linux-dvb.
Perhaps it's enough for Win32 but not for the linux driver.
