[mythtv-users] How do I correct channel info?

I used xmltvid info from TVGuide.com/SchedulesDirect/zap2it and
MythWeb to update all the xmltvid fields for the channels I have,
however, I can't get ABC (WLS 7 in Chicagoland) to tune correctly.
I have xmltvid = 11653, which the 3 sources mentioned list as the
correct xmltvid for my provider, WOW Cable. When I record on ABC I get
an ABC News feed instead of the WLS 7 feed I want.  This was quite
annoying during the final season of Lost. ;)
The majority of the columns I left their default values.  I've only
updated xmltvid = 11653, channum = 7, callsign = WLS and name = ABC.
The rest of the fields remain as populated from my channel scan.  Any
suggestions on what I have overlooked or screwed up?

Thank you,
