Well, in that case I'm afraid there can't be a unique channel ID then.
Are you absolutely sure that they don't have different TID values?
The whole idea behind the unique channel ID was to be able to, for instance,
react on changes in the PIDs or channel names etc., so no PID can be part of
the unique channel ID. There were several posting here on the list that
claimed that _every_ channel can be uniquely identified by its NID, TID and SID
values (plus, of course, the 'source'). If your radio channels don't have
different TIDs, then that theory must be wrong.
