I just wanted to give a quick update in case anyone else is experiencing the 
same problem as me. I was able to reduce my glitch rate from about 2 per minute 
to approximately one every twenty minutes by changing the .qam_gain parameter 
in cx18_dvb.c from 0x02 to 0x01. Does anyone know what this does physically? 
Does this offer any insight as to what could be done to eliminate the remaining 
errors?

Best, 
Kyle
