The store-and-forward function isn't new. The Starguides from
Premiere had it. That's why you had to dedicate the receiver and have
it constantly tuned to the Premiere transponder. It also required a
dedicated phone line to phone home with an electronic affidavit. If
you tuned away you'd miss the spots and either have dead air or the
spot in the network live feed.
