4.Let's assume that TBS6984 is working ok. Triing to scan with scan-s2... Using such file for Asiasat5 (100.5E):
- Code: Select All Code

S1 3960000 H 27500000 AUTO
S1 4000000 H 28125000 AUTO
I was triing on all adapters (0-3), using C-MULTI and C-BAND lnb-type, but everytime i received messages like "WARNING: >>> tuning failed!!!" or "WARNING: filter timeout for pid 0x0011".
And after every run of scan-s2 there was new messages in "dmesg":
- Code: Select All Code
