OTA Channel Guide Displays Wrong

2-2-23 My Sharp Roku Tv did an update and now my OTA channel guide is displaying channels and programming wrong. I’m in Greenville SC and for example ABC is 13.1 but it is showing as CBS and shows the CBS programming guide but watching that channel clearly it is ABC. This is happening on several channels. I turned the tv off and rescanned several times as well as unplugging it. My internet connection is fine and all other apps are working perfectly. 
thanks for the feedback.

Model: LC-40LB601U
Serial: YK0046672151

ID:Kpt884672151

I’m in Greenville SC 29651

This occurs across several channels where the guide states it’s one network like CBS instead of ABC.

Issue ID 51-049-027

I did a system update 02-02-23 then this started happening. I have rescanned my OTA channel’s and even unplugged the TV several times but this persists. 
thank you.

Re: OTA Channel Guide Displays Wrong

Interestingly I changed my location Zip code in settings to the location of the city broadcasting my OTA stations instead of my actual location and it appears to have solved the problem.

That happened to me once, too.  All I did was go into Settings on my Roku and changed my zip code.  Went back and checked and all my channels were listed correctly.
