6200ch requires specifying either 1) the node and port/host adapter,
or 2) GUID of the FireWire box you want to talk to. GUID is
preferable, as nodes can change during reboot. 'sudo plugreport'
provides the necessary data. If it says something like
Host Adapter 0
[...]
Node 2 GUID 0x000d7abcde123456
------------------------------
oMPR n_plugs=1, data_rate=2, bcast_channel=63 [*]
[*] Has nothing to do with TV channels
then the command line is either
sudo 6200ch -g 0x000d7abcde123456 70 # 70 = the channel to tune to
or
sudo 6200ch -n 2 -p 0 70 # 70 = the channel to tune to
If these directions don't work, recheck the vendor and model ID you
compiled in.
