    I agree that it is quite tedious but all sats on MY arc will be there with the proper tp and not somebody elses list- works for me.

    even with an american list I end up editing to add or remove sats,but it's a shorcut to start.
    The big pain with my s10 is the diseqc motor control,I have to assign position numbers manually when old receivers did it automatically.

    Only 2 more sats on my ku arc, 121 and 123w and this F3 receiver is quite remarkable. It's identical to my s12 but the menus have been fancied up a bit, got to love a blind scan that takes under 2 minutes. Let's see what it can do on c band.

    the ibox f3 and openbox/skybox f3 firmware is the same except for the logo.
    so if people find fresh ibox firmware first, they can use that.
    or am I being obtuse?

    I would love to see some screenshots if you get time. Also, do the timers work?

    Can you be a bit more specific?

    I took this pic this morning on NSS 806 at 40.5w, not using the receiver for recording but the time setting works flawlessly:

    s10 and similar have the lan manager for transferring files to and from the receiver via ethernet instead of yanking the usb stick all the time or using the slower rs232 method.They say the lan manager doesn't work with the f3,I guess similar to trying before the s series had support for it.

    I've never tried that before dr.zin, if you explain to me what is required I'll give it a shot.
