That sounds good, would you like me to submit a good Frequency List to 'dtv-scan-tables'?
Maybe name it something like 'atsc/us-ATSC-center-frequencies-8VSB-06-2009', reflecting the
date since the spectrum was allocated that way?
Another Kaffeine related issue, I noticed in libdbv5 of v4l-utils, that there is no
"North American Standard" LNB configuration. I just modified the source to add
add one and recompiled. Since in North America, the FSS Band is from 11700 to 12200, and our LNBs are
designed with an LO Frequency of 10750 MHz. Kaffeine seems to work correctly now on my
Ku Band antennas. Would you like me to submit the patch, or just create a new bug report?
Thanks again,
Bill

Hi Mauro,
yes I can appreciate that, but why not just make one file for each
country that actually differs,
rather than make the rest of us suffer?
canada and the us are the same.
atsc/us-ATSC-center-frequencies-8VSB
So could add two files for mexico and korea.
atsc/mx-ATSC-center-frequencies-8VSB
atsc/kr-ATSC-center-frequencies-8VSB
can't be any worse that the hundreds of files being maintained for DVB-T
in various countries.
That could be done, but newer updates to dtv-scan-tables
(and projects that use it, like Kaffeine) would have regressions for
people outside US that use it.
What could be done, instead, would be to have another file for
US new frequency set.

Hi Mauro,
Thanks for looking in to it. All is well now.
Good! Thanks for testing.
On a sidenote, given 700 MHz is used for LTE, and not broadcasting
anymore, would you folks consider removing ch 52 thru 69
in the us-atsc-frequencies if I posted a simple patch to dtv-scan-tables?
The problem is that, despite its name, this table is used on other
Countries using atsc (like Mexico, Canada and South Korea):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_digital_television_deployments_by_country#/media/File:Digital_broadcast_standards.svg
So, while the 700 MHz are still used on other ATSC Countries, we can't
remove, as otherwise, it will not discover the channels at the upper
frequency range there.

Mauro
Thanks,
Mauro
