Comment(by arencambre):

 OK, this worked for '''SH 121''':
  * '''SH''' in '''name''' column
  * '''State Hwy''' in '''abbrev''' column
  * '''TRUE''' (per pgAdmin III) in '''is_hw''' column

 However, '''SH121''' (without the space) still doesn't work, although if I
 check that on Google Maps
 ([http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Denton+Tap+Rd+%26+SH121,+coppell,+tx&hl=en&sll=32.987025,-96.993416&sspn=0.011285,0.019505&vpsrc=0&t=w&hq=Denton+Tap+Rd+%26+SH121,&hnear=Coppell,+Dallas,+Texas&z=13
 link]), it finds it but recommends '''SH 121''' (with the space).
