A particular channel can be uniquely identified by its \fBchannel\ ID\fR,
which is a string that looks like this:
-\fBS19.2E-0-12188-12003\fR
+\fBS19.2E-0-12188-12003-0\fR
The components of this string are the \fBSource\fR (S19.2E), \fBFrequency\fR
-(12188, MHz) and \fBSID\fR (12003) as defined above. The part that is currently
-\fB0\fR is reserved for future use.

The \fBchannel\ ID\fR is used in the \fItimers.conf\fR and \fIepg.data\fR
files to properly identify the channels.
