I though it might be good idea to select possible antenna input. I have 
one rtl2832u prototype which has 2 physical antenna connector, but on 
the real life input selection is not needed even on that case as 
antennas are hardwired to different tuner inputs => selection is done 
according to frequency. Almost all modern silicon tuners has multiple 
inputs, whilst device has only one physical antenna connector.

All-in-all, it is not needed now and I can remove it without any noise 
if you wish. It is trivial to add later if really needed.

regards
Antti
