I have been in contact with the scte65scan author and he believes 
Comcast started including HDTV channels in the tables which uncovered 
a bug in his code. He has revised the code which I have tested and 
will be posting a new updated version of scte65scan shortly on 
http://scte65scan.sourceforge.net/.
