Thanks. In the .pdf file for the cx24110, you will find that register 0
is the chip id, and contains 0x69=105 decimal. Your line begins with
90=0x5a, which is identical to my card, and seems to indicate a cx24106
aka HM1211(?) demod chip.
No, as I have no chip doc for the 24106, I do not know what the differences
are. On the whole, the deviations from the doc my chip has seem to be more
inaccuracies of the documentation than real chip differences. While creating
the front-end driver, I successfully pretended to have a 24110 on my card.
At least for Astra transponders at 27.5 and 22MS/s this was successful.
