I think you have the same problems I had, when I started to tune my DVB-T 
board the first time. The solution in my case: I had a very bad reception 
with my indoor antenna at a specific location. Please start "tzap pro7", take 
your antenna and run around in your living room. After a while, you'll see 
some artefacts and if you're lucky, you'll see a perfect and clear picture. I 
had a conversation with Holger for one or two weeks and I'm still sorry for 
my annoyance, because at the end it was just a bad reception...
