Hi List,
Ever since I purchased my Nova-T PCI in the UK, the scan utility always "picks up" the incorrect frequency settings for my local transmitter in NE Scotland (Angus), but instead uses another local transmitters (Durris) settings instead. It even displays the wrong transmitter name.
However after looking at what is contained within the NIT table (via test_sections) of the "Angus" transmitter, it seems that it *does* provide the correct values, but provided within the "Frequency List Descriptor" as additional frequencies.
Here is a more descriptive what I mean:
1) I put this frequency ("Angus") in initial.h (I remove all the other entries beforehand):
.freq = 850000000,
2) After scanning, these are the frequencies I receive (the standard NIT ones I believe for "Durris"):
546000000
578000000
722166670
713833330
634000000
658000000
3) But the first (of six) entries within each occurence of the "Frequency List Descriptor" is correct (note the 850000000 for "Angus"):
850000000
834166670
777833330
801833330
753833330
825833330
Would it be possible to add some functionality to the scan utility, so that it will either use the NIT defaults or the "Frequency List Descriptor" depending on which is closest to the original initial.h frequency instead?
I am fairly new to programming in C, so I'm not too confident to making a patch myself.
Thanks,
John
