Tried 3 times this afternoon and this evening, finally at around 7:45 tried it and it downloaded the 4000 (didn't know they even existed) and the 9000 range of CURRENT channels (Sky Angel, Public Interest and HighDef)
Of course I am recording all night tonight so I can't really test it except in the guide. Looks like they have just added a 2 second or so delay for the 4th # and if you don't press the 4th # is take the 3 #s. It seemed to wait even then I typed in channel 200. I'm pretty sure on Dish Recievers the wait for a 4th # is only good in the appropriate range. So on a dish reciever typing in a 9 first will allow you to type 4 digits, if you type a 3 first it knows that there are no 3000 #s and assume a 3 digit #
Yippee!!!
