[mythtv-users] More ATSC woes - some stations now not being received at all

Well - living with the latest CVS builds has it's ups and downs I guess. :)

Anyway - the latest CVS build seems to hate a few of my ATSC stations.  Some stations work great - and I can change channels back/forth no issues.  But one of my PBS stations and one other will NOT come in any more.  dtvsignal reports a strong signal (> 80).

Any ideas?  Details below:

setup: 
- p4 3.2G
- HD2000
- HD3000
- latest CVS
