<p>The Guide API uses "Group by Callsign" with the result that if
you have two channels with the same callsign, one gets dropped off
the list. Is there any reason for this? I plan to fix it with the
other bugs I am fixing, if nobody knows of a reason for grouping
that way.</p>
<p>Comcast have a setup where many channels appears at least twice
in HD and once in SD. The two HD versions have the same callsign.
The second HD version is in the 1000+ range and grouped in ranges
in some way they think is helpful for channel surfing.<br>

Comment (by Peter Bennett):<br>
<br>
The last bug listed, !Guide/GetProgramGuide, uses "Group By
!CallSign",<br>
with the result that if two or more channels have the same call
sign, only<br>
one of them is included in the list. With Comcast, the same
station is<br>
broadcast on several channels, and if you have your channels set
up like<br>
that you likely want to see the listings the same way. I am
changing this<br>
to no longer group that way.<br>
