Thanks for the reply!

My install is also a fresh one (re-partitioned and re-formatted disks).
My configuration is FC6 x86_64, dual core Athlog64 2000, kernel
2.6.20-1.2948.fc6, pdhdtv3000 and 3 pvr-250's. I am not scanning QAM
just Broadcast with Terrestrial 8-VSB.

The output of mythtv-setup for one of the channels is:
2007-05-10 21:56:35.657 SIScan(0): Tuning to ATSC Channel 2 mplexid(-1)

2007-05-10 21:56:38.803 SIScan(0): HandlePostInsertion() pat(0)

What is odd is that scandvb shows that the frequecy for channel 2 (or
at least that channels that is supposed to be 2) is 725028615 and
mythtv-setup shows 57000000
