This can be validated by the scanning program, it has to tune to this transponder anyway. When it can't get a lock on the precise frequency it might use a heuristic to scan offsets of +/-125kHz, +/-166.667kHz and +/-250kHz. It could use the lock time as additional quality indicator beside SNR and signal strength... Holger -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
