Harmony One favorite channels for radio and more channel icons

The Harmony One is a great device, but the software to program it should receive a big thumbs down. For example, it only allows favorite channels and icons for the Watch TV activity. In case you have an AV receiver capable of receiving (analog) FM channels do this:
  • Add a new set-top box, e.g. Samsung DCB9401R.
  • Add a new activity. Select Listen to music, then Listen to digital music (cable or satellite set-top box).
  • Make sure channel changes go via the Samsung, volume changes via your AV receiver.
  • If you re-edit the activity, you will an option to Set Up Favorite Channels and add icons.
  • Now you have to re-program button commands 0-9 for the Samsung "dummy" device. Take the remote of your AV receiver and re-program the commands.
The site http://www.iconharmony.com/icons/ is a good place to look for channel favorite icons to use with your Logitech Harmony One remote control. A few icons were missing, so I made these myself:
