I understand that they transmit on channel 48. However, I think
that the problem of it displaying as channel 48 as opposed to
displaying as channel 4 is something that goes awry on their end, not
on my end.
I did a little digging. The fault could be yours or theirs...
"...on most DTV coverter boxes, users rarely see the real channel
number. Instead, they view a virtual channel number that is sent with
the signal from the broadcaster, and in most cases, these virtual
channel numbers correspond directly to the old familiar analog
channel number. It is these virtual channel numbers that will usually
be dislayed on your television or converter box, and most converters
will sort them in virtual order..."
"The one case where you may need to know the physical channel number
is if you live in an area with weak DTV signals, and your television
or converter does not program a station on its initial channel scan.
In this case, if your converter allows you to manually add a station,
you will need its physical channel number to allow your converter to
find the station."
