[Scan-DC] Classical music on 149.750 mhz

1.    My response  is correct for the original cable tv channels you listed.  There is a BIG difference in cable tv frequency Mid-band channel 18(E), Super-Band channels 23(J) and 24(K) and UHF cable tv channels 18, 23 and 24 frequencies.  Originally you listed channel 18, 23 and 24, not 18(E), 23(J) and 24(K).  My other comments still apply.

2.  (Mid-band) Ch. 18E, 145.250 mhz. V, 149.750 mhz. A; (Super-Band) Ch. 23J, 217.250 mhz. V, 221.750 mhz. A; (Super-Band) Ch.24K, 223.250 V,
     227.750 mhz. A.

These channels and frequencies may vary from one cable area to the next, although most cable systems use one of three "standard" systems. (The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to pick from!)
