Comment (by jksjdevelop@…):

 High - I now think the PCIe card thing is a red herring.
 The problem is that Setup no longer understands the PCTV Nanostick and is
 just displaying the last valid data it had in the Frontend ID field which
 happens to be for the card at /dev/dvb/adapter0:

 I had not actually tried the Nanostick on its own. When working round the
 problem I restored a good database, deleted the old PCIe card and then
 setup the new one being careful not to open the entries for the PCTV
 nanostick as they were showing the erroneous data in the Frontend ID
 field.

 Just tried it on the laptop with just the Nanostick on its own.

 usb (0:0 1:0) on PCI Domain:-1036478584 Bus:32631 Device:-1038682504
 Function:32631
         DEVICE:0 ADAPTER:0 FRONTEND:0 (Sony CXD2820R)
                  FE_OFDM Fmin=45MHz Fmax=864MHz

 Frontend ID: and Subtype are both blank but Signal Timeout is set to 500
 and Tuning Timeout to 3000 so it certainly knows its a DVB card.

 Please rename the ticket appropriately as the issue is with this 'DVB-T2'
 card.

 Many thanks John
