Several channels appear to have changed their virtual channel number or physical channel in the 1 week since I have had an OTA decoder.  Is this common?  WMVT has changed its physical channel and WDJT has changed its virtual channel.  Im not sure if any others changed but these were the ones that I noticed.

Hmm, not sure what you mean.

CBS58 digital has been 1-1 from the beginning.

WMVT has been on Physical channel 35, although MPTV HD used to be on Channel 10's digital channel, but they moved it to Channel 36's digital channel.

I re-acqiored my channels yesterday and CBS was no longer at 1-1, It showed up as 46-1 but still on 46D.  And I was having no luck getting WMVT 36-1 on 35D but after I re-acquired, I got it back but its now a few channels higher (I think 38D).  I could be mistaken, Ill double check everything when I get home and post a followup.

Okay I checked things out last night before the game.  I must have been smoking something with regard to 36-1.  Its still on 35D.  However the virtual channel for 46D has moved from 1-1 to 46-1 on my setup.  It will probably only change for you if you delete your channel and re-acquire it.  Who knows though they may have moved it back to 1-1 and if I re-acquire Ill get it back on 1-1.

I'm still getting it as 1-1...
