Hi Kliphton,
It's under guide. I played around with it, and found the channels. Of course, like you mentioned, it doesn't say what they are. But it lists the numbers, and says when I am on one. It says, sellected. I can get the channels to play, so far. I signed up for the blue, and orange package. I would like to know what the orange extra package is, if I plan to keep this. By the way, apparently, channel 1 is FX. I'm sorry you have been dealing with a loss, and a funeral. Thank you for your help with this. If you think of anything else, please let me know.
