[QUOTE="me-smith, post: 153254, member: 199426"] I was given a Samsung FTA receiver (9400 FTA) by someone who upgraded. After a scan of ASTRA 2 I deleted a bunch of transponders that belonged to God and shopping, then pruned the channels down to about a dozen that I would routinely watch (Beeb, ITV, etc.). The result is fast, rock steady in any weather and I'm thoroughly delighted. Now. Software updates. I look at ASTRA 2 (fixed) and the Samsung uses OTA from ASTRA 1 Sirius and Hotbird. So, am I out of luck? Do I care? Do software updates just keep the internal lists up to date or do they patch software bugs, etc. If the former, I do manual scans anyway. If the latter, I haven't found any problems. In the background I can hear my departed father's voice saying, "Look. If it ain't broken, don't try to fix it!" Is dad right? [/QUOTE]
