There is the possibility that the SA3250HD that cox issued to me over nine
months ago has some different firmware than what others have.



That being said, when I use the sa3250ch from svn, my box will only change
to channels that are lower than 99.  Any channel above that it cannot
change to.



The patch that I supplied works with the box I have, I just posted the
patch in the hopes it will fix problems or at least lead to possible fixes
for problems that other 3250 users have reported on this list.



This may wind up being one of those YMMV situations...
