Hello Jolse,

No, it doesn't. It switches to the right wave band. I mean the 4th parameter 
in tzap's channels.conf

13 makes sense.

Makes sense, too.

Can be right.

> Reg 7f = 13

Must be.

I think it would be more usefull if you monitor every ioctl and write out the 
contents of register 0x00.
Maybe you're using wrong parameters and before the mt352 corrected them, the 
frequency is changed by the kernel-thread.

No, it doesn't have to do anythink with the motherboard. The i2c-bus is 
connected to the bt878.
