No broadcast there. Only one I got is my satellite on 647 MHz (ch 43), 
but I use the composite input in Linux.

I get errors when using setchannel:

    # setchannel -c
    ioctl( tfd, METEORSINPUT ) failed.: Invalid argument

    # dmesg
    cxm0: video decoder failed to lock

When using the -t option:
    ioctl( tfd, METEORSINPUT ) failed.: Invalid argument
    ioctl( tfd, TVTUNER_SETCHNL ) failed.: Invalid argument

    # dmesg
    cxm0: video decoder failed to lock
    cxm0: audio decoder failed to lock
