[Patch] Correct Signal Strength values for STB0899

Hi,

first of all I have to say that this patch is not from me.
It's from rotor-0.1.4mh-v1.2.tar.gz
Thx to the author of that patch and the modified rotor Plugin. I think he's a friend of Mike Booth

I think it should be included into s2-liplianin.
With this patch all dvb-s and dvb-s2 signal strength values are scaled correctly.

kind regards


Newsy
