Brad probably had an answer that worked for him but didn't
emphasis all the key points; the two channels for the same
station had different callsigns (KRAP, KRAPD), each had a
channel rule for that callsign's showings and dup checking
was turned off so it could record the same episode more than
once.

Doug Larrick asked a similar question awhile back and here are
several ways to record the same show twice at the same time (but
most aren't really useful):

Also, you should read through the HOWTO section on using multiple
inputs which explains key concepts:
