I'd expect that of the dish. Not sure the tuner does, though.

I looked up the frequencies etc of some UK progs, and did a manual tune
using that data. Said it was adding progs, but still couldn't find them
afterwards.


Freesat is the same cluster of satellites as used by sky and with a
fixed dish tuners all Freesat/Sky/Enigma2/A.N.Other boxes have no
problems getting all available Freesat or Sky or Free to Air Sky
channels from that cluster without having to move a dish. Freesat is
group of TV channels with an over the air 7 day EPG much like the Free
to Air channels from Sky where the 7 day EPG can be obtained by tuning
in to their IEPG channel (comaptable software assumed). Other free to
air channels may only have a broadcast now and next EPP but maybe a
longer period EPG can be obtained from the Internet.

It will be the software behind the tuner that determines how good the
experience with a GUI and associated features.
