Comcast cable.

I ran the scan but I'm not sure how to interpret the results. There's a
bunch of lines that look like this:

2005-06-07 07:26:30.896 DVB#0 WARNING - Status: NO LOCK!
2005-06-07 07:26:31.352 DVB#0 DVB signal 778c | snr ef7b | ber    0 |

2005-06-07 07:26:38.595 DVB#0 DVB signal 8c49 | snr f0a3 | ber    0 |
unc    0

Then there's a series like this:

2005-06-07 07:31:08.003 DVB#0 Signal Locked
2005-06-07 07:31:08.261 DVB#0 DVB signal f998 | snr fc65 | ber    0 |

2005-06-07 07:31:08.261 DVB#0 Status: LOCK.

2005-06-07 07:31:19.940 DVB#0 Status: LOCK.
2005-06-07 07:31:24.323 DVB#0 Signal Lost

and then it ends with:

2005-06-07 07:36:00.928 Closing DVB channel
2005-06-07 07:36:01.195 DVB#0 DVB Signal Monitor Stopped

The channel list looks OK, but I thought that was previously obtained
from ZapIt because the list has always been there even though I've never
done this scan before.

Does this tell you anything?
