Comment (by bonnevil@…):

 I do have a 10000 line excerpt over a half hour period that includes what
 looks like two EIT updates, one with a reasonable description and the next
 with the wrong one.  That excerpt is 4 MB in size, still too big to
 attach.  Further review shows that once it goes bad, it stays with the
 same bad value for each update after that.  In the log I have 19 'UPDATE
 program' entries with the "good" description ('Jackie confesses to Eric;
 Bill plans a holiday for his family.'), followed by 4 'UPDATE program'
 entries with the "bad" description ('Then There Were Five: When five
 original Upolu members turn on each other, things become tense at the
 camp; two contestants on Redemption Island compete for a spot as the sixth
 jury member.'), each entry spaced about one half hour apart.

 Is there a way to collect what the station is broadcasting directly,
 rather than depending on the backend to do this, to troubleshoot this and
 see what the OTA data is?
