I have a feeling that steps 2, 7, 10, 15, & 18 are going to be a ongoing (as I 
have already been doing so leading up to this point) occurrence.  I ran the 
first command that Andy provided and got the following.

$ v4l2-ctl --list-devices
WinTV PVR 500 (unit #1) (PCI:0000:02:08.0):
        /dev/video0
        /dev/video24
        /dev/video32
        /dev/vbi0

WinTV PVR 500 (unit #2) (PCI:0000:02:09.0):
        /dev/video1
        /dev/video25
        /dev/video33
        /dev/vbi1

To me this looks fine yet the second receiver just shows static.  Now I am 
wondering about the health of the PVR 500.  Given all the postings about 
getting one but not the other I hold on to some fantasy about this being and 
configuration issue.

If anyone else has experience with this and can give any other pointers it 
would be most appreciated.

Thanks,
Peter
