Re: Channels getting deleted on new scan

I was hoping it was something simple I could fix in the conf. I haven't 
worked on it or in linux in a long time and don't have the free time to 
figure it all out again. I'll have to look at this some other time. I am 
in the U.S. and these are ATA channels. They each have their own freq. 
and my guess is that they can use what ever numbers they want since they 
are on there own freq which they bought.
