I use a different card (DVICO), but had a similar problem. Use the
"azap" program to get signal strength and signal-to-noise ratio.
In the end, my probably was with the dvb drivers. I had to revert to an
old version of the dvb drivers and it fixed my problem. This may not be
a solution for you since your card is so new.
