If you do a scan in your application, you would use the "X" lineup to your account at Schedules Direct and then correlate the scanned channels with the stationIDs so that your application would know which schedules to use where.The JSON service has QAM support, (we would take the scan and do the correlation) but your application would need to be written to use the JSON service.I could not find how to select the "X" lineup, but I think that is what I have (re. above X Device<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />, nor do I know about "JSON" service.I am sorry I am such a pill at this, I used to be smarter but it seems while each day I learn something new, I forget at least two more things I knew.I also recognize the difficulty with matching lies with the fact that Longview Cable reports a channel with one name and it is slightly different with what is stored at SD.  It took me 6 months to get them to acknowledge they have failed to update music channel names that changed 4 years ago.  Not only in what was reported in a scan but what they displayed in their guide.  Now they are updated.  It may be I am looking at a similar problem all over again.So, as I see it.  I can scan with Clear QAM Cable - QAM Standard, and see if anything changes (that is the definition of insanity, right!) and then go to SQLworkbench and put in the correct schedule for each channel  OR I can unplug my cable and get OTA.  Choice number 2 is looking real good.I have one additional problem and it has to do with scanning and I will post something over there when I get some facts together.Again, thanks for all the help!!!!  Y'all were GREAT!If you see anything else .... please post.</blockquote>
