    My parents got a sky box for the free to air channels - they do not pay a subscription. The thing is the channels are spread all over the place and its a pain in the ass to navigate between them, really you have to write all the numbers of the channels down ad then key them in individually. My NTL gets around this by havig 'Favourites' which means you have a second menu of only the channels you can get, or want to watch.

    Can you do this on Sky?

    I can't figure it out, all I can manage is to set a few channels as favourites so whe you push the blue button it scrolls through them in ascending order. There has got to be a better way of doing it than this.

    Can someone help?
    Thanks!

    That's the only way of doing it. :)

    you can do 50 channels that way.

    you do get used to the numbers after a while.
    My parents got it an they are over 70.

    dont forget, once you have stored up to 50 favorites, you can then press TV guide and then the blue button and see/access your favourite channels this way.
