Comment(by Craig Arno <craig at arno.com>):

 I had a breakthrough of sorts on this issue.  I ran "mythfilldatabase
 --do-channel-updates" and noticed a small number of new channels showed
 up.

 It appears that my DTV card populates the "channel scan" with numbers like
 "4-1, 89-10, and 103#6".  SchedulesDirect has non-QAM numbers like 4 and
 107 for channels like 4-1 and 7-1.

 I don't know enough to fix this relationship or even where to fix it.  I
 do believe this numbering issue is preventing schedule updates.

 For instance one of my channels populated by "channel scan" is called "4-1
 KOMO HD" and on Schedules Direct this same channel is called:

 4       4       10626   KOMO    KOMO

 (4) "Logical Channel"
         (4) "Broadcast Channel"
                 (10626) "XMLid"
                         (KOMO) "Call Sign"
                                 (KOMO) "Name"

 I have a spreadsheet showing the relationship in my area.  The spreadsheet
 was put together manually with painstaking effort.
