Albert,

your dmesg output looks quite good. In fact, the only line that irritates me is 
the line with
xc2028 4-0061: Error on line 1063: -5
This line indicates an i2c-communication problem with the tuner.
As it happens BEFORE the XC3028  firmware is loaded, it cannot have anything to 
do with the xc3028 firmware.
Therefore, I suspect something either with the general setup of the Expresscard 
or a DiB firmware that does not
100% support your device. Have you tried a later firmware?

For comparison, I list here what is output in kernel.log for my Cinergy HT USB 
XE:

with regards to the firmware modification that I mentioned, see the comment 
below.

I did not change the extract_firmware.pl file (in fact, it is not useable for 
the Mod7700.sys driver, but expects the driver
file hcw85bda.sys), but just used a hex editor to replace the ID 0x64000200 by 
0x60000200.

certainly a good idea to use an amplified antenna. Have you got another DVB-t 
device that works with a passive
antenna in the same area where you use your new device?
