* budget_av was left with the gate open, thereby more susceptible
to RF interference due to I/O operations

Bug #1: The 5 tap equaliser is set to correct simple perturbations
like reflections on the IF cable for DVB-S. In the case of DVB-S2
a more powerful equalizer is used to correct the filter group delay
allowing the bandwidth to be reduced by a factor of 1/3
Bug #2: The ZIF tuner takes badwidth to be set in Hz

Note:
* At High Symbol Rates we do not have enouph machine cycles to handle the
incoming symbols and hence might run into problems at the very end of the
specified definition
* Most of the equations have been calculated for a master clock of 99 MHz,
running at 90MHz, raises lot of issues such as the need to recalculate
all of them , which is eventually very painful.

The Bug was found by Arvo Jarve <arvo@softshark.ee>
It was a wonder how it worked in the case with this bug,
STM verified this that this nibble was in fact insignificant
and can be ignored.
But still we need to fix all inconsistencies.

In this case, we will be sure that there exists a carrier
and the center frequency would be simply f1 - f2. In such
a circumstance, the TR loop is simplified to doing a simple
check for timing, rather than searching for the same.

BUG! Setting CRL parameter overwrote the CR Algorithm type,
eventually leading to wrong search algorithm to be employed in
the DVB-S carrier loop optimization.
Symptom: Once the CR optimization stage is passed either way, in
a successful or failed manner, the very next carrier search will
fail, due to no Carrier Search Algorithm specified.

which should have happenend in the DVB-S2 mode only, but reading it as it is
for the other delivery systems causes nothing to say but LOCK_LOST, which
just causes confusion amongst users.
