Thanks for the log.

    CoreContext datadirect.cpp:1029 (DDPost) - Downloaded 1633668 bytes
    CoreContext datadirect.cpp:1036 (DDPost) - Uncompressed to 19477801 bytes

That's roughly the same as I get. Robert, if you've got his data, it should
probably match the Uncompressed size. It doesn't appear to be a download
issue.

    Updating source #1 (sd-cable) with grabber schedulesdirect1
    Found 58 channels for source 1 which use grabber
    ...
    Updating source #2 (sd-digitial) with grabber schedulesdirect1
    Found 110 channels for source 2 which use grabber
    ...
    Updating source #3 (sd-antenna) with grabber schedulesdirect1
    No channels are configured to use grabber. <-----------------
    ...
    DataDirect: Not inserting channels into disconnected source 3. <----------

Leo, if you remove the entry in /etc/hosts and run it again, do the above lines
look the same?

If "analog cable" = source #1 sd-cable, then it looks like it's working.
However, sd-antenna doesn't appear to be setup completely.
