I've got that one, and according to that the band-switching in your driver is OK. Actually I can't see any conflicts between the sheet and your driver. I emailed the author of the Linux driver (nice, helpfull guy). According to him, the Linux driver supports my card. He told me that the FM and FI/FR tuners are not very different but that he had to fix something in order to not enable the radio. I looked at the Linux driver, but I didn't get any wiser (according to it the band select bytes are: 0xA4,0x94,0x34 - according to the FR1216 specs this (i.e. setting bit 3) will select the radio (at least for the low band)). I got a name at Hauppauge from whom he got a fax of the interesting pages of the FM1216 specs. I sent the guy a polite letter - hopefully he'll send something to me. Hyg' Flemming -- Flemming Jacobsen It'll probably say something like "Does not compute" or "Inoperative parameters".
