I've been doing a lot of reading on this board and want to starting playing with FTA, however, there are a few things that I can't find the answers to. One topic is the use of Satellite and Channel lists. I've read Iceberg's thread about Channelmaster and he seems to indicate that Channels lists are somewhat of an organization tool, allowing the user to order, rename, and eliminate channels from the guide. Therefore, it sounds like a method of making the receiver and channel listings more user friendly. On the other hand what does a Satellite list do? Does this allow me to load a list of Satellites to the receiver? If I were to dump this information from a receiver what information would each list contain? Do these lists contain current transponder information? Essentially, to further my understanding of the receivers, I would like to know what information each of these lists hold.
I hesistated to post this question because being a newbie, I'm concerned that these questions that I'm asking are only questions that a hacker would ask. If this is the case, I apologize, but it's hard to disseminate relevant FTA questions from questions that would unknowingly brand me as a hacker.
