Thanks Manu!

I've added the following to modprobe.conf

options dvb_core dvb_shutdown_timeout=0 dvb_powerdown_on_sleep=0

And tuning is now perfectly persistent.

On a DVB-related note, I also have the TT-3200, which you apparently have been 
working on getting working with linux-dvb.  Is there any further progress?  I 
was never able to get the proper /dev/dvb entries to be created when I loaded 
your modules.

Thanks again,

-wade

modinfo dvb_core talks about a useful module parameter "dvb_powerdown_on_sleep"

disabling ie, this parameter = 0, the LNB doesn't get powered down
