Search the DVB mailinglists for the dvbsak announcement, a library which has a
frequency scanner utility (give it a range to scan). It might take forever
:-) but it will find any used frequencies, and usually, when it finds one,
some of the metadata transmitted on that frequency announces all other
frequencies and settings. I guess its a good last resort kind of try :)
