I have a Hughes E86 DirecTV HD receiver, cable, and an antenna for the HD channels. All the channels are in the guide and everything is fine, with one exception, and I am trying to find out who's issue it is.
I get five local HD channels. All of them can be tuned via their DTV channels, OR via the analog number, both with a "-1" appended to the channel. For example, local analog channel 3 is digital channel 45. I can tune the DTV station with 3-1 or with 45-1.
The odd exception is the local Fox affiliate, which is analog channel 24, digital channel 26. 26-1 works, but 24-1 doesn't. 18-1 gives me their digital broadcast. Channel 18 is Fox' Salina (a town about 90 miles away) affiliate.
DirecTV says they don't provide guide info for my local programming. Cable isn't carrying the digital channels yet. So this channel mis-mapping has got to be something in the digital broadcast itself, right?
