    You should get a little more but not sure of your location ?

    Go through the channels you have and note down the different frequencies , post back and let us know what you have and we give you the missing ones to scan for

    (If you press the SIG button you will see the Signal Strenght pop up box , Note the "Down Freq" )

    Many thanks for the help. I'm now receiving 71 channels. Just one question, is there a specified spacing between the frequencies, and is there an upper and lower limit to those frequencies used. Knowing this would enable me to manually scan the entire spectrum and be cvertain that I had every available channel. Once again many thanks to all who responded to my posting.
