[mythtv-users] solved - problem with signal strength during channel scan

[Mario Minati]

I managed to solve the problem.

It was due to a wrong diseqc setup for my multiswitch.

After correcting the setup I had to remove all channels and transports 
and reload the data from a channels.conf. Then it worked.

Greets,
Mario
