Are you amping up or splitting the signal in any way? If so, for test
purposes remove anything that can degrade or improve RF. It looks like
the tuner gets into lock briefly but falls out, implying abnormal RF
conditions. When it locks you have perfect SNR, kind of implying that
the signal may be too strong.

Additionally, for all your testing, repeat the tests on tuner#2 by
azap -a1 -r c112.

Additionally, try channel 83 or edit the conf file and add some lower
channels in the 40-80 range where the RF characteristics would be
wildly different. I'd like to see how the card performs in these
circumstances for you.
