Hello all! I've joined you folks and switched from my cable provider onto a dual system 721 and 301 combo. Really a big improvement from my analog cable service!

Quick question for you all.
I have subscribed to my local package here in San Francisco and notice that the actual channel location is in the 8000's, but are also mirrored to their normal channel placements in this area (i.e. 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7 etc.

My problem is, the channels in the single digits don't show more than 2 shows worth of guide versue the 8000's that show the full 9 day guide?

Am I doing something wrong? How can I fix this?

2nd question:
Is there a way to rename channel numbers (i.e. KNTV to NBC)?

3rd question:
What is the little flashing clock in the bottom left hand corner of the screen? I believe it happens when I have an upcoming timer about to record on another channel?

1. When did you install it? If it was just today, you might just need to wait. If it was a while ago, I'm not sure what the problem is.

2. Nope

3. It's an indicator to let you know a timer is going to start - I think it starts flashing 3 minutes before the recording starts. You can hit cancel and it will go away and the timer will still fire.

A new feature allows you to disable the flashing timer clock too.
