The problem with that is that the real channel IDs (what the channel
scan finds) don't match Comcast's channel numbers at all.  Therefore
it's impossible to know what's what unless you watch a few minutes of
each channel.

Maybe I'll try to convince my brother to go strictly OTA and forget
about Comcast. :)
