Still down at 2245 - it seems that the underlying data is still there
(for the channels I checked) but that channels.dat is empty, which
causes the grabber to fail. Maybe it could be worthwhile keeping a
local cached copy of channels.dat (taken care of by the grabber) in
case this happens frequently?)
