Two ways to go . Put a DVB-S PCI sat card in your computer or buy a FTA receiver ( Pansat 2500A or a Fortec Ultra ) . If you are using a motor , there is no need for a twin LNB . If you want true FTA , you need at least the 30" dish & a linear Ku LNB . If you want to " test " DN & BEV , put an old 18" DTV dish & LNB on the motor . If you want both , strap a DTV LNB to the side of the 30" dish & linear KU LNB . Use a Diesque swirch . Wyr |

Bev/bell has NOT changed Keys since November 2003....and I have posted those keys here at numerous places..also KEY changes APPLY to ANY FTA receiver...all the same,make-model makes no difference Current BEV/ Bell Keys AUX0 is active, changed Tue Nov 18 20:00:00 2003 AUX0: 82 D7 51 E4 5B 97 9D 81 AUX1: 65 57 46 14 36 02 D8 DA The Dishnetwork Keys work on ALL makes/models of FTA receivers...Pansat..Fortec etc.. Current Dish Keys KEY1 is active, changed Thu Mar 17 17:00:00 2005 KEY0: F0 C9 59 D8 7F 8D 34 13 KEY1: 0B 51 9E B7 EB 20 E7 4D BTW...here's where/how to get and use BOTH the Pansat 2500 and 2700 autoroll bin v245,which does work..its in this linked thread below..READ! http://forum.ecoustics.com/bbs/messages/2/127878.html If missing channels after a Key change install,..always shut power OFF on BACK of receiver,unplug,wait 1 minute,plug ,turn back ON..if that doesn't fix it,then do a AUTOSCAN (or can add new channel list using Gtools 1.86) via the remote in your installation setup again. |
