Do they let you control other things? Like, can you use it to change
satellite channels automatically, and start recording them at specified
times, even controlled by a computer would work? If it did this, could it
stop or insert music into the time where it would switch channels and cut
the show in when the dish arrives on the channel? I really don't want to
record silence, and if it can't stop automatically while it switches, at
least to fill the space with something.
Is there any cheap c-band receivers that are likely to get most radio talk
shows?
