I was doing a fine tune scan on my PRO-164, and I heard a bit of a Christmas Play and all (A Christmas Snow as it's called), and... Well that's odd I think. It's a constant transmission and -sounds- like an FM Broadcast station, but the problem? The frequency. This despite sounding like a '107.5' or whatever station(and now telling me to visit the website on my screen, being a 'special movie presentation....') On 487.7375MHz... Any idea what this is?

Cable TV Leakage?? or an image [what make/model scanner?]
Television Frequency Table

Most Cable & OTA TV Audio channels end with .7500, see if it sounds better on 487.7500, the nearest TV Audio for that portion of the band would be 485.7500 tho, two mhz away...

See if you can match the audio up to one of your basic Cable channels.
I always get TV Land [64 in my region] on 467.7500

Don't have cable or anything, just netflix on a wii. And it's a PRO-164.
