Hello Jason,

Thank you very much for your reply!

So I guess this RF performance issue is not yet fixed. I was using fairly
recent media driver sources (linux-media-2014-05-26).

I'm using kernel 3.10.42. This morning I rebuilt it from scratch, only relying
on the in-kernel drivers instead of the experimental external ones. On the
first try it worked fine.  The (reported) signal strength was lower than with
linux-media-2014-05-26. But no uncorrectable errors occurred.

To test, I shut down the computer and cold started it with the USB stick
attached. Unfortunately it failed.

Maybe my USB stick and computer aren't meant to get along :-)
