I helped Daniel merge the code, but I don't have one of these devices of my own -- if you'd like to send me one, I can test it out myself and make improvements as necessary. We suspect that the issue lies in driver for the MaxLinear tuner. If you want to send me a device, please email me privately off-list and I'll give you a mailing address. > 5.
