Got fed up with keep loosing my favourite channel list after experimenting with my ev settings so I downloaded my cdf file. It downloads fine but shows as windows cannot open this file, I’m sure in the past when I downloaded other peeps channel data it has a satellite dish emblem on the file. What am I doing wrong? Will the file work ok if I upload it to my ev?

your best bet is to get voxer... a excellent litle prog for opening/editing aand sending/receiving cdf files.

You can open and edit the CDF file using the UFL firmware

you just need to associate that file type with a prog that will open it.
in windows explorer..tools/folder options/file types
