Test channel?

[bigpro]

I thought I read somewhere that there is a channel with test patterns to tweak the picture, but I've searched and can't find it.
Any help?

Yeah, I guess so. Does this have test pattern bars, black/white patterns, etc for tweaking the picture? I tweaked it with Digital Video Essentials on DVD, but I'm not convinced the settings have successfully carried over to the satellite.

It'd be nice to have it available when I'm not at work...
