[DVB patch 12/54] frontend: mt352: fix signal strength reading

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Barry Scott <[email protected]>

Fix two problems with the signal strength value in the mt352.c frontend:
1. the 4 most significant bits are zeroed - shift and mask wrong way round
2. need to align the 12 bits from the registers at the top of the 16 bit
   returned value - otherwise the range is not 0 to 0xffff its 0xf000 to 0xffff
