so create two sources in schedulesdirect, one for the QAM and one for
cable and link them separately in MythTV?

Also, oddly, ever since I ran the --dd-grab-all on that machine even
if I go back to just using the commands I was previously using of
--refresh-today --refresh-second it is still adding all the channels
to the QAM source.

that was a frustrating realization =P
