HDHR w/ QAM

Hi,

I'm in Jacksonville, FL and just got Comcast's basic cable (really, to get the Internet) but was happily suprised to see just how many channels I can get via the HDHR in Clear QAM.

The problem I'm having is how squirrelly it seems to be to get Sage running right with it. I've tried following the directions on the SiliconDust website, but I'm still having issues.

First, the HDHR scan utility seems to work pretty well, but it has a few stations improperly identified. (The easy ones it has wrong are ANIMAL instead of APL, and COURT, instead of TRUTV. It also seems to have issues with WAWSDT and WCWJDT, and it consistently has a mix-up between one of those and WJCTDT.

What I've determined so far is that it seems as if you have to stop the SAGE service each time you make a change to the channel lineup via the HDHomeRun Setup program, then start the SAGE service and rescan in Sage.

What is so frustrating is that I can get some channels to work, go through a rescan, get more to work, then go back and see that some of the ones I had set up before aren't working anymore.. What gives?

If I want to start from scratch, are there some files I can delete? If so, which ones and where are they?

Thanks,
Paul

Additional "wrong" things from my scan (documenting here for future generations, and myself):

What shows up as WTLVSD is really WTLVDT2, and what appear to be WAWSDT is really WJCTDT.

After repeating the same things that I've been doing since last night, it looks like it finally took, and all my channels appear to be working properly.
