[linux-dvb] Frontend doesn't tune in on Pro7 channels when SatReceiver is active on Multiswitch

[Oliver Bardenheier (obardenh)]

 Hi Carsten,

right, this happened quite a while ago, and all Receivers/VDR already
use the new frequencies.
So it's something different.   :-(

Hi,

I don't know if they switched satelite channels during the past year. If
not, the effect you are seeing could be caused by a wireless telephone
(DECT) since I believe DECt frequencies are in the same range as the
"downsampled" DVB-S signals in-house. But I think they wanted to switch
at some point, so it might not apply to you. So my guess would be that
there is a new telephone nearby (or badly isolated cables).
