Use the hdhomerun_config program to run a channel scan from the
command line.  The output will show what channels it finds.  The HDHR
will "lock on" to analog and digital channels during a scan.  So
watching the signal meter during the mythtv-setup scan can be
misleading.  Also have you successfully received any ATSC channel from
your antenna (with a different tuner )?
