This means that either the signal is actually so weak that the lock is lost
over and over again, or there is a flaw in the driver that makes VDR "think"
the lock has been lost.

What happens if you switch both devices to that transponder?
Do both frontends behave the same then?

Does it also happen with other transponders, or only with this one?
