 The cable and cable 78+ frequency tables for US Cable are incorrect, which
 results in channel numbers which don't match those on my digital TV.
 Cable channels aren't contiguous, instead they match broadcast from 2-13,
 14-22 are tucked between 6 and 7, then 23-94, then 95-99 are between 6 and
 14, and 100 starts where 94 left off.  Also channel 78 is at 549Mhz, not
 537Mhz (channel 76).  See for example
 http://www.atxnetworks.com/qrf/catvfrq1.htm , although this gives the
 video carrier rather than the center freqeuncy.

 For the 78+ table:

 Current:
 {{{
         FREQ(modStr[i], "cablehigh0", desc[i], "Channel %1",
               78, 537000000,1005000000, mod[i]);
 }}}
 Correct (I think):
 {{{
         FREQ(modStr[i], "cablehigh0", desc[i], "Channel %1",
               78, 549000000,645000000, mod[i]);
         FREQ(modStr[i], "cablehigh1", desc[i], "Channel %1",
               100, 651000000,999000000, mod[i]);
 }}}
 Possibly this should be a different ticket, but the sub-channel number is
 incorrect also; digital sub-channels are numbered from 1 and mythtv
 numbers them from zero.
