Suggest you run tv_grab_uk_atlas grabber manually in a terminal to check 
it works first e.g.

tv_grab_uk_atlas --config-file  <your config file>  --hours 1 > grab.log

If you see any errors in the  terminal window e.g.

     Fetching listings:   0% 
[                                                      ]Status: 500 
Server Error (An internal server error occurred)

This indicates a problem with the metabroadcast Atlas API key


For the number of days, atlas is up to 14 at present, suggest you put 
"--refresh 0-99" in mythfilldatabase arguments using mythtv-setup. This 
allows mythfilldatabase to keep requesting data until no more is available.

The channel=cbbs items are correct, there is a mapping file in your 
.xmltv/supplement/tv_grab_uk_atlas directory ( 
tv_grab_uk_atlas.map.channels.conf)
