With 0.10, you can assign am arbitaru number in the channel.channum 
column of the database, and that number will be used for display and 
input. channel.freqid will be used for tuning. They are usually 
identical, but don't have to be.

There is currently no user interface to edit that (at least not in the 
release or CVS), you have to manually edit the database.

Run mythfilldatabase with the --preset option, if you want to use that.
