64QAM can be searched, 256QAM can`t

Hey!
Lately, my DVB-C provider started to feed one more modulation
http://ilgthegeek.livius.net/2010/08/07 ... -cable-tv/
“The transmission is DVB-C, and currently uses 13 multiplexes. It looks like the reserved frequency range is 306-498 MHz, with 25 channels, separated by 8 MHz. As reported by the STB (set-top box), the Symbol Rate is 6900 and the modulation is 64 QAM and 256 QAM.â€
The strange thing is that I don’t have any problem receiving the 64QAM modulation, but I can`t search/find the 256QAM programs
I must be doing something wrong as … even on manual scan I get only the 64 QAM programs…with Modulation set on 256QAM
If in Channels – Scan I select AutoScan …Menu – Select Modulation 265 QAM all of the check boxes before frequencies are removed… (compared to remaining most of them when choosing 64 QAM )
the 3 channels that i can`t get are all HD, 2 of them that i would really love to have
Can you assist me with a solution ?

le. the link is from somebody in another town so the frequencies are a little different, for the manual scan i`ve posted over 338.000 is similar in channels to his 314.000, but as you can see my search was over 256 QAM modulation and returned 64QAM channels
