I think it's not a good idea because the card require other parameters to tune and lock: frequency, polarization, simbol rate, fec, rolloff and modulation.
The "standard" parameters are: simbol rate: 27500, fec 3/4, rolloff 35 and modulation QPSK
If you try (via driver) other modulation, you need try other parameter too...
Modulations: 2, minimal (QPSK, 8PSK).
Simbol rate: 10 to 30 Msps, almost 20 steps.
Rolloff: 3 (20, 25, 35)
Fec: 8 supported by the card (1/2, 3/5, 2/3, 3/4, 4/5, 5/6, 8/9, 9/10 )
2 x 20 x 3 x 8 = 960 trys x 200ms = 192 seconds = 3.2 minutes to try all posibilites. It's a lot of time if you like zapping...
Best regards
