Check your boot log (dmesg) for information from IVTV. In particular  
did it recognize the tuner type? - "type 4" is IVTV's way of saying  
it doesn't know what the tuner is, and you will have to specify it  
manually. My 350 is an LG TAPE H001F MK3 (idx 68 type 47) but the  
Hogs use whatever tuner they found in the shop the week the card was  
made.

Make sure the tuner input  of the card is associated with the correct  
channel lineup, and that the proper frequency table (cable, HRC or  
IRC) is being used.

You're close, IVTV is just not setting the tuner to the correct  
channel, or so it seems.
