Yes.  This is what I have; 

AUTO  226500000 Hz netid  4112 tid  561 (DVB-T)
AUTO  191625000 Hz netid  4114 tid 1072 (DVB-T)
AUTO  177500000 Hz netid  4115 tid 1283 (DVB-T)
AUTO  219500000 Hz netid  4116 tid 1539 (DVB-T)
AUTO  536625000 Hz netid 12802 tid  784 (DVB-T)
AUTO  557625000 Hz netid 12832 tid 3584 (DVB-T)

Sorry for any typos.  

The logical channel names were the same as the physical 
channel numbers in the time of analogue, but if you look 
up the frequencies now you will find, 
2 is on 12
7 is on 6 I think
9 is on 9A, I think, yes we do have a 9A in Australia
10 is on 11
28 is on 29
31 is on 32, I think

Not that it really matters.  What does matter is that 
you have to edit three of them.  Change "500" to "625".

It is more likely that you had the correct offsets in the 
old installation, forgot about them, and then found that 
the new installation did not work properly - because of the 
missing offsets.  But anything is possible.
