The "delay" setting shouldn't be needed for any card when tuning
OTA ATSC stations. We check for the VCT table for these channels,
so if you are on the wrong frequency you won't get a match. It
is only with certain DVB drivers + PAT/PMT tuning that the "delay"
setting should have any effect other than slowing down tuning.

John, can you open a ticket with the '-v record,siparser,channel' log? 

Also, can I safely assume that you haven't changed the driver since
shortly before this started happening and you have tried rescanning
this channel?
