Please don't top-post.
Changing your CALLSIGN/CHANNUM for EIT channels should not affect
listings retrieval at all. It may however give the scheduler more (or
less) freedom when scheduling programs across multiple video sources
and hide/show duplicate* channels in the EPG.
* By duplicate channels I mean those having the same callsign _and_ channum.
