Ken,
The instructions in the software are poorly worded. You do have to set up the favorites for each activity.
Regarding the radio stations, as far as I know only those activities which utilitize a cable/satellite box allow you to assign favorites because they tune by channels. I'm not sure why the Harmony software has not opened this up so that those users with satellite/radio tuners through their recievers can benefit from the favorite screens. You might send an email to Harmony support to request this feature. Perhaps if they receive enough requests they will add that functionality in a future update.
The max number of pages for favorites on the H1 is 4, to give you a total of 24 channels. If you want more then you might do exactly what you've been doing- add more activities based on the satellite box (ie. 'watch movies', 'watch news', etc.)
I hope that helps.

I confess to being a bit confused about this, hope someone
can help.
I have 2 activities that use the same Sky (satellite)
box, both based on a Watch TV activity. I also have a
Listen to the Radio activity. All of these require favourite
channels.
I set up the channels I wanted for one of the Sky activities
and checked the box that asked whether to use these channels
for all Watch TV type activities. But...
When looking at the other Sky based activity (in the setup
program), those channels are not shown. Even after downloading
to the remote, they are not available for that other Sky
activity.
So, how can I apply those favourite channels to both my
Sky based activities? Do I simply have to set them up
again in each activity that needs them? In which case,
what does that checkbox do?
How can I set up favourite channels for the Listen to
the Radio activity. The option to do this is not shown.
Can you only do that for TV? How stupid is that.
How can I add another page or can you only have 3 pages
of favourites?
Any help with the above would be much appreciated.
