Television Transmission Settings

I hope someone can help me with this. I've just purchased a Peak USB DVB-T Freeview Stick. So far ir can resolve 55 different TV and Radio channels, but a few stations that I can get on my Humax in the kitchen will not show up on the Stick.
This may simply be down to signal strength because although it is being fed by a roof aerial, the cable run is quite long after feeding the kitchen setup.
I would like to try manually entering the missing stations and the USB Stick software requires the transmission frequency (not a problem) but also requires the Video PID and Audio PID, neither of which are displayed on the Humax and despite googling, I have not been able to find a listing of the PID data for the various channels.
Does anybody know the Video PID and Audio PID for the following 2 Freeview channels in particular broadcast from Crystal Palace ...
Ch10 ITV3 482000 kHz
Ch801 (32) ITV3 562000 kHz
and has anyone a link to a comprehensive listing of this data for all Freeview channels broadcast from Cystal Palace?
Thanks for any help.
Dave.

I appreciate your efforts dcm but I had in fact found that chart earlier. I thought I'd struck gold until I spotted that the chart was last updated in February 2005 and of course there have been several channel reorganisations since then.
For example, if I manually input the settings for ITV3 from the chart, I actually receive ITV2
What I need is that chart but updated to reflect the current channel setup at Crystal Palace, but so far I haven't been able to find one.
Cheers anyway.

This is more up to date.

Does your Humax not have the facility to switch settings from auto to manual so you can read the PIDs?
Alternatively does your USB stick not have the facility to change from manual PID entry to Auto?0 -

Thanks for that scotsbob, although it still seems a bit out of date (July 2009) and doesn't seem to be Transmitter specific??? I thought each transmitter had its own settings, but not being well up on this I could be wrong.
I have printed it off and will play with some of those listed settings when I have a bit more time.
I did try finding the PIDs on the Humax but had no luck. I need to check again to see if I've missed the data in the menus.
The USB stick only seems to have Autoscan or Manual channel input requiring Tx frequency and Audio PID and Video PID.
