I duno about everything else, but C/N ratio of 4.8dB is horrible.
Though I guess it's probably the driver failing it, just like every
other linux-dvb driver.

If the signal's so bad, why does a scan find all the channels perfectly.

The card's are kinda cheap, and there isn't any shielding around any of the
chips, but it's not as if I'm in a marginal area of coverage (Central U.K.
gets pretty good Astra coverage).

Here's the post I was talking about:
