Yes, the proliferating tuners were solved by properly setting the 
hostname and deleting _all_ cards;  the out-of-range channel numbers 
persisted for longer but after repeated scanning to properly populate 
the transport list and then more 
delete-all-channels-and-scan-known-transports cycles I got what looks to 
be a good list.

I was getting the 'failed to open demux device' messages during the 
scans, and also during recording, but projectx finds no defects in the 
recordings.
