I decided to try a different card that is reported to work, so I
bought myself a HVR-2200.
Drivers compiled cleanly. I extracted the firmware and the driver is
loading well. The second frontend is showing a little irregular in
dmesg - (registering adapter 1 frontend -906461813), but otherwise it
looks good.
Here is an extract out of dmesg

Only problem is that I am only seeing channels from one transport.
I have seen that people that are reporting problems with this card
usually have I2C errors in dmesg, which I don't have. The transport
that I can tune, is working flawlessly, with all three channels on
that transport giving a perfect picture and sound.
Here is my initial scanning data. I had to create it myself as I live
in a rural area. I used a known working card to extract this (Dvico
Dual Digital 4 PCI)
# Australia / Goulburn / Rocky Hill
# T freq bw fec_hi fec_lo mod transmission-mode guard-interval hierarchy

Here is my channels.conf. Again, this was tuned on my known working
PCI card.

Sounds like a tuning issue. Either the Antenna is bad or the channels.conf
doesn't represent the actual center frequency or the channel or the tuner /
demod code is buggy.
Other people are having success with DVB-T HVR2200 so it's either a bug that
gets exposed by your environment or something else. mkrufky has some tuner
improvements pending for merge which are not in the saa7164 tree yet, you might
want to hold for a few days for these.
The other thing to double check is that the freqs in your channels conf do
actually represent the center of the DVB-T channel. I suspect they do, but
double check for good measure using the official Australian DVB-T antenna docs.

Hi Steven,
I have just found the official Australian broadcast data
(acma.gov.au). I did find something interesting.
In all cases except for channel TEN, the analog channel and digital
channel are located on adjacent channels. Channel TEN has a huge
channel separation.
I have confirmed that the channel center frequencies in my
channels.conf file are correct.
Are we looking at a 7Mhz vs 8Mhz channel separation issue?
