I don't know the actual channel distribution, frequencies, etc, but this could actually be a plausible reason as to why you were seeing the problem. Each channel is going to be transmitted on an offset frequency from the carrier frequency. The Honeywell box sounds like it's a digital filter box. Any filter will have a bandwidth that it is supposed to filter, it will also have harmonics that it might filter with less gain, or it could not have a very sharp bandwidth edge so there is some filtering of frequencies that those channels might be carried on.

Sorry to go all science on you.
