Default FreeView tuner for radio only.

Does the display just give the actual channel number - or can it give one
you've allocated yourself? This device will be mainly used for the BBC -
so it would make things easier if R1 displayed 1, and R2 2 etc rather than
701 and 702 - although it's only a minor point.


I had a quick play, it doesn't seem possible. You can make a short list
of favourite channels to quickly hop through, change their label to show
in the EPG but the red display stays the same.

Manual here

Have a look at Argos, there seem to be other STBs with a front display
of sorts. For instance

* Bush DFTA 16
* Acoustic Solutions DV600B
* Hitachi HDB72 Digital Set Top Box

Got a feeling the innerds of these are all similar.
