Yes, someone else pointed that out to me in email. As he mentioned,
the whole RF/PSIP channel identification system can go haywire, and
in this case, some of the subchannels on RF channel 42/PSIP channel 
1 were also showing up on PSIP channel 42. I verified that the two 
active audio channels on 42 were the same as their equivalents on 1.

However...how come I'm not getting ALL of KAXT's channels on PSIP 42?
Are they perhaps sending incorrect PSIP information only for those few
audio channels?
