Sorry, I don't have a system that I want to play with at present, but 
ISTR that the freq is in Hz, while channel numbers rarely go beyond 4 or 
5 digits, so that might not be a real source of confusion.

I wonder if you have got here after several abortive attempts.  With 
tuners the usual advice is to 'delete ALL tuners' and then redefine the 
ones you want.  Again, this is speculation and someone else may be able 
to identify the real problem, but that might affect the 'old connection' 
report.

Good luck,

John
