Moving house and transmitters

Hi,

Quick and very simple answer I'm sure.

When we move house to the t'other side of t'hill, we will be on Keighley TX whereas we are on Emley Moor here.

So if I do a full scan will that delete the Emley Moor channels first or do I have to do that manually (and rather long winded)
or is there a better way to do it.

I would rather not do a reset, as that will lose my recording and my planned recordings.

TA,

No.

A reset won't delete any existing recordings, but it will lose any timers you have set for the future. Depending on how many timers you have it may be quicker to do a reset then recreate the timers than manually delete all the channels.

If you are into TAPs there are some that would help. I'd suggest reading about Channel Manager at www.toppy.org.uk

If you aren't into TAPs however it is probably quicker to just manually delete all the channels than learn about suitable TAPs, connect the Toppy to a PC etc.

Thanks, didn't think of the point that there would be a TAP for the job,
but saw that they run Channel Remover or Manager.

I'll see what occurs after I move, I may simply rescan, and then spend the 10-15 minutes to clear out the Emley Moor channels, given that I know the frequencies each transmit on then it shouldn't be an issue.

Cheers,
