Further research shows that the failure of listing the numeric channels is
at TVL1.EXE
Using the following
TVL1 TVL.HTM TZ-P.CHN 0 TVLNEW.TXT
or
TVL1 TVL.HTM TZ-P.CHN 1 TVLNEW.TXT
leaves me with the call letters, not numbers. Sigh...What Executables and
Events should I go over to try and get this right?
