Are you using the channel editor program (Gtools) specific for your receiver? Ie Fortec has slightly different editors for each of their receivers. I have a different Gtools program for my Lifetime than for my Lifetime Ultra.

Also, what OS are you using on your computer? Ie the channel editor software doesn't run properly on Win 98, in case you are using that. It runs, but some of the menu items are missing.

Anyway, on my Gtools programs, there are 3 windows, at the right are channels, in the middle are transponders, and at the left are the satellites. If you right click a satellite, a pulldown menu appears with "delete" as one of the options. If you don't have this, then I suspect that you either don't have the proper program, or you have the wrong OS.
