The problem wasn't the Hardware though.
It's the initial  scan file the Kaffeine used.  The error was the ball
park it started in was wrong so a new "initial Scan file" done by W_SCAN
the error. And noe the cnahhel scan in kaffeine works (77 Channels
found) But BBC starts on channel 21 and my initial scan starts at 25 so
I think I can resolve this (after Wed) with a new initial scan.
