I've just managed to get the 5th channel tuned, then saw your E-mail. ^_^
I did it by adjusting the Freq in the channels.conf by 100Khz
increments, and found the signal a little higher than documented.

Giving it a go now...
Yep! That worked a treat! SBS locks on now, from its advertised Freq. ^_^
Thanks!

As an aside, is there any cmd line Linux tool to scan across
frequencies for signals to lock on to? (Bit of a moot point, now that
I've managed to get all the local stations, but it'd be handy
nonetheless, and a good debug tool...)
