Has anyone else noticed this?

I was flipping through stations tonight and happened to flip onto channel 218. This is supposed to be a ACCESS DirecTV Magazine Special Offer. When I flipped on the station the wierdest thing happened. The station kept the image of the previous station I was on and the audio. Thought I would try it with a PPV station and sure enough - the last image that was on the screen showed up as a still frame (not the image of the PPV since these are usually blacked out - it was the last image that was on the screen) and I got the audio for the PPV. Want to hear a lot of moaning, try an adult station. Not quite sure what is going on or if it is just a fluke with my receiver. Anyone else have a wacked out 218?
