Yes a scope would be nice!

No I traced some pins with a ohm meter. After some gpio togling and measuring
the voltage on the hc4052 I found out the s0 and s1 pins.

For the dvb reception I looked at the BER (bit-error-rate) using tzap it
seemed to drop from 8000 or so to 4000 when using gpio21 = 1.
Analog reception is a no-go in this mode it only works when gpio21 = 0.

FM radio seemed a (little) bit better when using fm_rfn = 0 and the
1.5Mhz antialiasing filter enabled. But its all somewhat subjective I
must admit.

Nope, I will update the wiki with a few drawings that I have been able
to figure out.

Thanks for the support!

BTW Currently the card is for sale in the Aldi for 28.99 euros if
someone is interested and in the proximity of Holland ;).
