First time post so please bear with me...
As you all know that if your local channels are in HD they are referred to using their letters. For example, in Chicago CH2 is WBBM, CH 5 is WMAQ, etc. Well, CH26 is currently not offered in HD and its call sign is WCIU.
I have a program search to record all Cubs games. Now here's the problem... Whenever the games are on CH26 it keeps recording channel "WCIU." WCIU is not offered in HD on DirecTV, it doesn't even appear in the guide! The list will have the game with the HD logo next to it. When you play it, it is actually WMAQ (the NBC) station.
I wish I could show a picture of it because I'm not sure if I'm describing this well enough.
