It seems to be CAM dependent for me, unfortunately. With a pretty standard
Conax CAM I am stable for a week or more, but with PowerCAM 4.6 I get errors
and timeouts in matters of hours.

It may of course be related to the fact that due to odd technicalities I
can't test the same transponders on the two CAMs. :-/

I've looked at splitting them in patches, but the CA passthrough enable has
unknown origin as far as I know. Maybe it's trivial enough that I can just
recreate it; does anyone know if that's commonly considered acceptable?
(The patch is only a few lines.)
