Scott Evans proposed the following answer:
Hi...

Here's an alternate solution,

Grab yourself a copy of W_scan from the ubuntu repositories, this
application allows you to create your own channel.conf file, then you
can edit the order that you wish to have the channels.

The text you need to issue to W_scan is... (this will take a little
while as it does a full scan of all DVB-T channels!)

w_scan -X > channels.conf

this will then create the channels.conf file, this is sorted by default
by frequency so then you can use your favourite text editor and sort the
channels as you want them to appear, NOTE! do not add any extra
characters to the generated text or this will not work... best of
luck :)

Here's an example of the text output (from the above created
channels.conf) I get here for Hobart...
