Thanks for your very fast response!!

I have tried again with various different arrangements of antennas.  Any
further reduction in signal strength causes the working multiplexes to
be lost.  Checking the relative signal strengths on my working dvb-t
system, the 2 multiplexes that the KWorld stick can receive are the 2
most powerful.  Maybe I need more signal, not less?  Under Windows the
KWorld works very well on all multiplexes - surely this means that the
QT1010 is OK here and that the linux drivers should be able to work?? 
The multiplexes that work are both FEC_3_4 and QAM16.  None of the
FEC_2_3/QAM64 channels work.  Could it be that the receiver is not being
set up correctly?

Thanks again for any suggestions.  Andy
