Where are you getting these feeds from? Digital 102-77 implies cable, 
and there are no analog transmitters on major channels, so analog is 
cable also?

Save the (wrong) details and forward  them to Schedules Direct. This 
sounds like an error arising at WWNY's end. The cable co has no input to 
the scheduling data. It all originates with the station.

and I am told that the interns and secretaries often end up with the job 
of entering the data into the spreadsheet (or whatever), so errors are 
easy to make and not easy to notice.
