TV tuner cards loaded but cannot tune

TV tuner cards loaded but cannot tune

I have installed two separate PCI tv tuner cards in my HP Proliant N40L microserver running Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS. Both cards are successfully recognized and registered as DVB-T cards
Attempting to use DVB utilities (scan, w_scan) or other software (TVHeadend) returns no signal. There are no errors messages in dmesg (see below). One of the cards has successfully been used in a Windows PC plugged into the same antenna cable, so I feel confident that the hardware and signal are fine.
What are the next steps to troubleshoot this issue?
