These are the shortcommings I can see.
1.- when I open a User_db.bin file the file name is not displayed, so if I open a second screen with a different User_db.bin it becomes confusing knowing which is which.
2.- Although I can copy/paste information in an open window, I cannot copy/paste between two windows, so if I want to add a satellite from one file to another, it cannot be done. This is a PITB as a lot of satellites do not scan in with the channel name, so it requires a lot of editing after a rescan. One satellite I use has 120+ channels and they all scan in as Ch-001, Ch-002, Ch-003 etc I have an edited list but no way to add it to a different User_db file.
3.- There is no print out available. The SetEdit program mentioned here viewtopic.php?f=51&t=1661
does allow a print out, so there is a way round that. That is for the V8, the V7 can be found here
Code: Select all

One improvement to the box would be to have the "Info" screen with no timeout (Like when i push the SAT button). I only get a max of 10 seconds to do any actuator adjustments before that screen disappears. I have to go into menu to get a permanent signal/quality reading. My dish and actuator are old and don't always stop at the exact same point.
