I believe in the channel editor of mythtv-setup you can give channels
priorities so it will pick one over the other. Because these share a
callsign, Myth currently treats them as pretty much identical. If you
can't find it in mythtv-setup, check your channel table in the database
to see if there is a priority value you can change manually.
