Is it possible to change where a OTA HD channel appears in the program guide?

My Fox affilate transmits it's OTA HD on freq 40.1. Fox OTA Analog is 61. Fox Analog Cable is 11.

Presently I have tried to go into MythWeb and change the Fox OTA HD Channel number to 11.1 (I would like the OTA HD to be listed right after it's corresponding analog cable channel)

The problem is that when I view the program guide in the Frontend, MythTV displays the OTA HD channel between analog cable channel 61 and analog cable 62. (But still shows the channel number as 11.1) So somehow the frontend is ordering the OTA HD channels based on the channel's SD analog freqency counterpart?

If I view the listings via MythWeb, it is in the proper numerical order (Cable Analog 10, Cable Analog 11, OTA HD 11.1, Cable Analog 12 and so on) If I edit the channelnum field in Mythweb, I can put it where ever I want in the "listings" page of mythweb. But it doesn't matter what number I put in the Channum field as far as the frontend is concerned. It always displays between 61 and 62.

So obviously the program guide in the MythFrontend and MythWeb use a different field in the Mysql Channels table to sort the channels in the program guide. Anybody know what field in the Channel table the Frontend does use?
