OK, I've got a big chunk of the problem identified...

I think the US-Broadcast freq table in my backend is hosed.

I can get a channel (so far, 1 channel) on a frontend if I change the 
freq table to US-Cable.

I get a freeze-and-fail on the front end if I try to change the channel 
or do anything else, requiring a backend kill and restart if I want to 
try TV again...  The backend stays up, it just refuses to respond to any 
TV requests from front ends...

Nothing in the mythtv logs that I haven't posted before, but this 
appears in my backend system log:

Maybe someone can make sense out of that.  Seems that the bttv driver is 
reseting the card...

Q:  Where do I put in the correct freq table for US Broadcast?
