I have tried all of that and still didn't get anywhere.
I had run w_scan and it could see the multiplex, so that gave me confidence
that the hardware was working.
Then ...
I went to scan again (to get the exact working of what I was seeing) and
accidentally enabled the 'Ignore Timeout'option and ... it worked! :D
What specific difference does that option make? The help text implies that it
was a workaround to a specific hardware/driver issue that would result in
seeing no channels and that enabling it would pointlessly and significantly
extend scanning time.
Either way, I'm happy. I've not actually tried watching yet - but I have the
channels in my list now :)
Thanks all!
Dave
