But if it's possible to interrupt scans, you could support some experimental/ugly 'work-around'. On 'set-frequency()' just set the card to some kHz less and scan up. Report station signal, if scan stopped at the right point. Otherwise set to the required frequency and report 'no signal'. Bye, Robert
