Edited as requested by website owner

possibly, I thought there were all horizontal but now it's all mixed up, some are horizontal, some vertical. I don't know why some have changed and others not, and how to change them back individually.

Nope, just the one

Edit, think I have figured it out. All of the chaneels that have gone to vertical are on the same frequency and S/R as SBS.

Bugger, in trying to restore my broken channels they have now all been deleted, and I can't get the box to find new ones. I've no idea whats going on.+

Edit: got it sorted, I can have my cake and eat it too.
