I am in SoCal and I have ran into something interesting. Looks like a bug to me. ;) Wondering if anyone else is seeing it. I have tried to add OTA ABC (Channel 7) and FOX (Channel 11) to my Guide and they don't seem to stick. They appear as Channel 7 and ABC but when I turn the tuner off and back on. Channel 7 jumps back as showing channel 53 and FOX reverts back to its UHF equivalent. Is anyone else seeing this?
Before someone suggests... "Did you save them?" ... Yes I did. :D about 5 times....

Maybe it is referring you to the digital uhf equivalent of the same channel. Digital is where all channels are headed. Just a guess. :confused:
my guess is that are some PSIP issues going on with these 2 stations.
I have a Samsung 151 and have not had any issue with ABC but I could not tune FOX on and off all day.
Seems that certain PSIP problems can affect each brand of OTA rcvr differently...depending on what the problem is

I've seen this with one of my local stations. I think that there is some kind of PSIP bug between the 6000 and some kind of broadcast setting/equipment. Fox45 in Baltimore shows up as 46-01 on my 6000 when it should be 45.1. 46 is its UHF channel.

Email your station engineers, they probably need to reset or tweak the PSIP generator. We have one local station that is constantly screwing up the PSIP data.
