Hi Pavel,

thanks for reviewing. Yeah, I thought about adding a check for channel
value between 1 and 14. But I did not add it because I think if this
function will ever be called with channel < 1 or channel > 14, then the
calling code must be wrong.

Would be nice to see what others think about this.

Thanks,
Michael
