Please let me know how I should proceed in solving this. I would be happy
to provide samples of captured video, results from new tests, etc.
When you tune using azap, and you can see UNC and BER values, what is the
SNR value and does it move over the course of 30 seconds?

Also, I believe UNC and BER display garbage when signal lock is lost,
so do you see the "status" field change when the BER/UNC fields show
data?

Steven, Devin,
Thanks for your replies. The signal and SNR are usually in the range
0x0128 - 0x0140. They may increment or decrement on a per-second basis
but otherwise remain steady. The status field does not change most of
the time when bit errors occur, but it does lose the lock from time to
time for a second. Here is a representative sample:
david@delldimension:~$ azap -r RTN
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
tuning to 555000000 Hz
video pid 0x0051, audio pid 0x0052
