<Manual channel setup>

There is also the possibility to read the channels from an xawtvrc file.
If you have access to one for your regional cable provider, this is
easier.

The xawtv format is quite easy to understand and you can build your own
manually if you can get a channel table from your provider. Use the tips
in the last post regarding E,SE etc naming.
