Unfortunately, for now you need to read the source and see
that the enum starts at -1. But for your case, if the value
is anything other than 0, the tuner isn't available.

There's work in progress to change the values to translated
text, so something meaningful (and in your chosen language
would print. The change would be seen in 0.28 at best.
