using the same software that writes the bin?

I think that's the extention for a GTools file. If you are using Channel Master you should be able to convert it.

You will do equally well without a channel list but by doing a blind scan if your receiver supports it.

i did a blind scan, but i have all these channels WMFR. WRFT, WKSE, i don't know what they are...im guessing a channel list will give you the full name of the channel or just the 4 letter shortcut?? thanks

Andrew: To a certain extent you are right in pursuing "channel list". You will probably get more info. I get by, by looking at the channels, shortlisting some in my favourites, and putting a little extra info manually. I will see if I can come with an answer to your original question. In the meantime, if you have the answer, just post it here.

so i guess my question is for those people that already have channel lists:
are you guys/gals showing the full channel names or the same 4 letter extensions as myself?

Those are Locals from around the country!

If you want the DN names edit your channels (it's an option on your receiver)to display by SID.
