I use VDR 1.1.25 for tuning. I found the problem to be the PWM value saved 
to the card. I changed PWM manually to 0x45 which gives me the best results 
and now QAM64 channels work fine but QAM128 channels don't tune every time, 
I quess I'll have to experiment with the register values to see if I can 
find something better for my system.
