This is a terminal issue.  It shouldn't make the backend unresponsive, but if
you are watching livetv it tends to leave a black screen up for a while until
the backend times out..  Of course once hte backend is on a bad channel you
have to have it change to another channel some way other than livetv to get out
of this situation as well..

The current code doesn't stop looking for the PAT even after a tuning (lock)
failure so that message alone doesn't help much..

Are you actually getting a lock on the transport but failing to get a PAT?

I really need more information to help anymore..
