I suspect we are slightly mis-tuned, this will cause loss of the color-burst  
portion of the signal.  I found a freq table provided in a developers kit
for their i2c chips and although it agrees in general with your simple table,
individual channels within the list jump all over the place.  Lets concentrate
on 2 or 3 of your "strongest" channels, ie ones that you get the best
reception for on a normal tv.  Tell me those channel #s and I'll hand build 
a table that provides the exact for those specific channels.  I'm also
going to add a program called "freq.c" to the webpage that allows you to
directly plug in frequencies.  Note that this program is VERY dumb and
only deals with the raw (fRF * 16) values, not the actual frequencies in mHz.

Here's the philips table for your own experimentation:
