Frequency Index” field below to determine whether the card is locked to the correct channel.
Frequency_Index - This field reports the frequency index corresponding to the channel the
tuner is currently set to. Frequency_Index is a 0-base value. Transponder #s on meters and
IRD are 1 base. To determine the channel’s transponder, add 1 to the Frequency Index.
