Yes thanks; I also figured that out a couple of minutes ago by running
the script:

root at theta### cat tvs
#!/bin/sh

TT=0

until [ "$TT" = "100" ]; do

rmmod bttv
modprobe bttv tuner="$TT"
echo $TT
tvtime

echo "enter TT"
read TT

done


# eof
root at theta###

works (more or less same) for tuner=
9, 10, 15, 41, 42, 43, 44, and others

So far it works fine with tuner=44 but the colors are a bit 
dull (like black and white sometimes) and picture correction
(brightness,contrast,hue,saturation) won't fix it fully.

Won't tune channels above 60 for some reason.
Is this due to tvtime settings?
