Auto Tuning Channels

When I selelct auto tuning it runs through TV Antenna, Cable, DTV in fact all sources.  The problem is I don't have an Antenna and don't want those Channels.  A single Channel like say 28 can have 4 sub-channels 0, 01, etc. and it typically lands on the one I don't want.  Editing Manually sort of works but then I get white noise on those Channels....  they are not totally removed.  Is there a way to scan just the Cable Box input?  I would like a Channel to be a single input and not many.
