| |
Hi!
It seems that the video4linux driver for the AIMS Labs radio card (or the equivalent Reveal RadioTrack) limits the usable frequency range to 88-108 MHz. Why?
Here in K-Town, Germany, there are two radio stations with frequencies below 88 Mhz (Deutschlandfunk and CFN Frankfurt). If I try to choose one of them with the fm-tools I get the following error message: "Frequency 87.6 out of range (88.0 - 108.0 MHz)".
I solved the problem by simply changing the rangelow value like this (kernel 2.2.0pre6):
--- linux.orig/drivers/char/radio-aimslab.c Sat Jan 9 21:40:58 1999 +++ linux/drivers/char/radio-aimslab.c Sat Jan 9 18:02:50 1999 @@ -228,7 +228,7 @@ return -EFAULT; if(v.tuner) /* Only 1 tuner */ return -EINVAL; - v.rangelow=(88*16); + v.rangelow=(87*16); v.rangehigh=(108*16); v.flags=0; v.mode=VIDEO_MODE_AUTO;
Ciao, Kuehly
