This or the previous commit on the DVB code seems to kick in even 
when a sub-channel is temporarily off-air, and even when I haven't 
requested a re-scan.  Plus, it's overwriting the existing channel set 
and losing the xmltvid.

Specifically, my PBS affiliate (KQED) broadcasts 4 SD channels during 
the day and 2 HD at night.  If I tune to one at night, I lose the 
other 3 from the channels table, and even though I've numbered them 
901-905, I wind up with those dropped and new channels 91 and 92 
added.  (If I tune during the day, I wind up with 91-95.)  This seems 
like a bug, since I still want to be able to schedule recordings for 
the times 92-95 are on-air.

Pre-weekend code scanned ATSC channels and retained them without problems.
