been thinking and was wondering if anyone else might have thought about or knows of a solution that will auto change channels and log for working channels? it will obviously have to have the ability to view 8PSK-turbo and connect to the IKS server. i searched and couldnt find a PC tuner card that would be compatible let alone software. might there be way to use the serial connection to a sat tuner to control it from a PC and have the tuner report back whats working to the PC? obviously the point of this is to search for any channels that might be working still on the IKS server and generate a list of whats up and down to keep people semi happy till things are fixed. call me stupid or whatever but having something like this is better than watching the preview channel. also dont pull the "get a sub" card, not the answer im looking for so have your breath and key strokes.
