The EEPROMS of the Siemens cards are quite similiar, the EEPROM
images are thus exchangeable if you adjust the PWM values per card...

Wouldn't you lose the card-specific Ethernet MAC address this way? AFAIK,
the Siemens cards have a "TechnoTrend-style" encrypted MAC address in the
EEPROM as well, don't they?

I think a utility to dump a backup copy of the EEPROM contents would make
sense...
yup. The solution above was just outlined for the case that everything got completely screwed up...

And using the LinuxDVB-driver you can override the MAC using an ioctl anyway,
