Yes, I did test it myself, though I was new to linux-dvb back then and I 
don't remember if I tested it correctly.
I tested it with playing a video file with "mplayer -vo mpegpes", so the 
problem wasn't caused by the tuner of FF DVB-S.

IIRC Moving the FF DVB-S card few slots farther from my two Airstar2 
cards helped.
Of course the distortion may had been caused by something else (PCI 
slot, IRQ, driver etc).
