Saturday, March 21, 2009 - 15:39 GMT I don't know the channels actually. i was hoping it would be like run a scan and you can pick up whatever channels is available. I'm a beginner at scanning. the reason am asking is that my neighbour has channels from India so i wanted gets some from the Caribbeans thanks for the reply ... let me know if there is anything else
