Hi all,

I'm still here :

I have version 1.3 of the TM Channel Editor; what I wanted to do was change the channel order, put new stations in channels 1-30, etc. You can do that on the box (I have the TMS-1000D), but it takes forever (one channel at a time, choose it, move it, start with the next), but I was hoping for a SW shortcut, but the editor doesn't even show the channel order . . .

Am I missing something?

Thanks (as always)!

Rob

Well, going back to the original question of 'what's the point?' I guess that now we know it's 'for backups'

well if you have a motorised system you might be getting 4380 channels and that could take a while to work through with the remote!
