These numbers are -used as 'frequency' parameters in the channels.conf definitions of the Sky -channels (see the file 'channels.conf.sky'). Since these numbers are always -less than 1000, they can be easily distinguished from normal satellite -transponder frequencies. The VPID is 160 and the APID is 80 for all Sky -channels.
