I have 4 channels with <n/a> and I have rescanned many times on openatv 7.51 and 7.6
If I select one of the channels it will play and then name will appear.
And I honestly can't remember when this started.

I have no problems after scanning.

FBC Automatic = Internal loop-through when required.
There is nothing automatic about it. You are loosing tuner independence by selecting it.
The N/A issue comes about because the service in the bouquet doesn't exist in lamedb or the name has changed. As an example, Sky uses one name and Freesat uses different names on SI tables.
Scanning does not affect update bouquet contents.( I'm not talking about ABM). A screenshot of the scanning options used would be ideal as well as the ABM options.

After scanning you got channels n/a where it was a same channels were in your favorites at the time. You get such a mark when the channels in question change transponder, so you have to find and scan them and move them to the same place in the list.

I do not have favourites channels set up in bouquets.

Your tuner configuration is not the issue. Please do not post/mention anything about those as it will just complicate things.
You said "I have rescanned many times". Pleas explain exactly what options you select for scanning. Do you use "automatic scan" or "manual scan". Please show the options you are using.
There is no such thing as "Sky Freesat". "Sky UK" is one provider. "Freesat UK" is another provider. Your issue might be caused by using two providers in ABM that have different names on the SI tables for the same channels. In this case "Blaze" and "Really". We will have to add name hacks for them so the names are identical. Please upload your debug log that contains details of your ABM run so we don't have to go through 20 questions to establish what option you are using.

There is an issue that needs to be investigated. This is an issue following ABM scans if you enable both Freesat and Sky UK.
That being said:
1. There is no need for you to scan using the scanning functions in enigma2 for 28.2. Just enable the not-indexed option in ABM so that it adds channels in test mode.
2. You don't need to run ABM or Freesat and Sky UK.
3. Manual scan gives you more options than Automatic scan.
4. You dont need to scan UK Terrestrial unless there are transponder changes. These are not very common and they advertise these on the channels.
5. You should disable the Cable Tuner if not done so already. Alas, ATV have a weird way of configuring hybrid tuners.

I do have cable tuner J as not connected in tuner configuration and yes you are correct about ATV and hybrid tuners, in Automatic Scan It thinks there are two I tuners not I and J and I always need to select no it does not know it is not connected.
Edit: I have disabled FreeSat in ABM, as you mentioned that may have been causing the problem I always thought in my ignorance if a sky channel was down I could go to Freesat.

Changes made to Freesat provider files. So should be fine now once people update the provider file and run again.

I just noticed when I went to tuner c and selected configuration mode advanced my SRC had changed from 7 to 1 and frequency has changed from
1257 to 957 this must have been automatic setting that did that.
I am posting this separately to avoid conflation and confusion.
There is no such thing as "Automatic setting". "FBC Automatic" is "internal loop-through" when required, this is the same function as on Solo 2, TM Nano 2 super, TM 3t Combo and other 7356 SOC. "FBC Automatic" does not set FBC tuners automatically. It's a rubbish name that should be changed IMO.
