The log also shows as adding channel 6 (this is common
practice by many MSOs to broadcast on the "natural"
channel (the local number, 6 in this case) and the
"logical grouping" channel (where they place groups
of channels together).

Perhaps you should update your SchedulesDirect
lineup to not include channel 6 (or 506)?

And channel 468 is their "This TV" feed.  A completely
different channel.
