Could it be that the card is set up for 5.1 surround instead of simple

This is for anyone thinking about an external automatic antenna tuner.
It is not meant as an endorsement or indictment of these devices.
I operate CW, digital, and once in a while SSB. Because of the vastly
different operating frequencies, no one antenna can work perfectly on every
one.

That looks like the interference I had at one time from my monitor,

so, you may have to adjust the frequency of the monitor (if it is
adjustable).
