Kent,
It sounds like your using PAL instead of NTSC, or that youve loaded the
module improperly... I had a simular issue and it was becuase I was using
PAL. There is an frequency offset option in your xawtv, I have an offset of
+6 (this makes the channels tune in better... heres what I have...
fine = +6
Heres what dmesg shows about my tuner...

As you can see from the defaults, my tuner is tuned to chanel 3 because I use
it with my vcr, its easier for me to use the vcr remote... but Ive used it
w/out the vcr, but it needs a really good signal to tune in anything... which
is one reason I use the VCR... it works really good with cable... but hooking
up an antenna to the tv tuner is a lesson in frustration...
If you send more details (such as the tv tuner card info... what brand, model,
... I maybe able to find a better config for you.
