Does anyone know the difference between Blackbird/Silverbird receivers and Silver bullet Enforcer also I beleive there is one by Fortec?

I am confused by the definition of "FTA" receiver. If it only picks up channels that are free then can it really open up all the channels on the dishnetwork and give us free pay-per-view? If it infact can do that now, then wouldn't it be easy for the dish network to stop it in the near future because they can send updates that we have no way of flashing onto this unit?

I'm interested in purchasing a FTA reciever, but am clueless as to which one to pick!
I've seen the pansat, blackbird, silver bullet enforcer, and fortec all advertised-now can anyone tell me the differences between them, what makes one better than the other, and any personal experiences with any/all the above, to help me decide??

HEY!!!
If you search the net :

http://ca.search.yahoo.com/search/ca?p=free+to+air+receiver+forums&ei=UTF-8&vm=i &n=20&fl=0&x=wrt&vc=

you'll see that there's alot of info on this stuff. It's always better to learn from someone elses mistakes, so search the forums, read the opinions, and see what most of the common problems with testing ( hackin' ) the systems are. I kinda like http://www.dssftp.com/forum/upload/index.php
but there are hundreds of sites.
Hope this kinda helps

I heard the blackbird has "auto key graber" feature so there is no need to manually input the key. Also, there is no need to do software upgrade on blackbird.

Why is the Pansat 2500a the FTA receiver of choice?

Are you able to access onscreen channel menus while using the Pansat 2500a?

If purchase the Pansat 2500a do I have to purchase any additional hardware to enable it to receive channels?

Is the Panasat 2500a susceptible to ECM's like the DSS cards?

I haven't tried but you need to have a channel showing and the green light to flash and that's now gone as a result of the Err4 message as I understand it. Err4 means your flash chip is shot.

ok....here is question about the Blackbird. Both my friend and i have one. We are locked on same satelites. Same amount of Strength abd Quality. But he is getting different channels on the same sat as i am. for example...all the ESPN station are not showing on mine..but they are his. Can anyone tell me what i can do to get these channels? Is it possible i have to reflash the box? or can i just hook up to his dish download same Sats and then take home and plug into my dish? If we are getting same signal won't this work? Anyhelp would be great thanks!

WHERE DO I CHECK THE TPS AT? SORRY,,,BUT THIS IS MY 1ST BOX. i'LL TELL YA YOU EXACTLY WHATS GOING ON..I USED A DISHNETWORK BOX TO LOCK IN ON 119. AFTER I WAS LOCKED...I HOOKED THE BLACKBIRD UP. WENT TO INSTALATION...WENT TO THE ECHO7 119 SATELITE..AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL. I THEN CHANGED THE LNB FREQ TO 11250. THEN I GOT 75% S AND 100%Q WHEN I GO TO DOWNLOAD THE SAT..IM NOT RECEIVINING ANY 140,142,144 ETC..WHICH ARE THE ESPN CHANNELS. THE DISH NET WORK BOX I USED LOOKS TO AN OLD ONE. IM ALSO USING A DIRECT TV DISH AND LNB. WHICH I WAS TOLD THAT IT WILL OWRK. I WAS GOING TO TRY USING A DIFFERENT RECEIVER TO LOCK IN ON 119 AGAIN. CAN I USE A DISH 500 RECEIVER TO LOCK IN ?? I THINK THE OLD WAS A DISH 300. AND I NOTICED THAT THE AZIMUTHS ARE DIFFERENT. COULD THIS BE THAT IM NOT TOTALY LOCKED IN AND THATS WHY IM NOT RECEIVING ESPN? IM GOING TO HOOK THE BLACK BIRD UP TO MY COUSINS DISH. WHICH HE HAS A DISH 500 SETUP THATS HE CURRENTLY IS SUBCRIBED TOO. WHICH IKNOW FOR SURE THAT HIS IS LOCKED IN TO 119. SO IF I HOOK UP TO IT AND DOWNLOAD SATS AGAIN I'LL SEE IF IT HAS THE ESPN CHANNELS. IF SO...THEN I WILL USE HIS RECEIVER TO LOCK MY DISH IN. THAT MAKE SINCE? WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS?

Hi All, wazza up?

I going to be very honest. I clicked almost every link on this page and not one worked for me. I tried with proxies and they still don't work, so I am guessing MOST if not ALL the links so far are dead.

I need help to know where, AND IT MUST BE OPEN, I can download the software for

1. UltraStar Receiver
2. Fortec Lifetime Ultra
3. Pansat 2500a
4. BlackBird ST-2000
5. Silver Bullet Enforcer

I don't even have the slightest clue to what the software is called, but I really don't want to have to pay a $100.00 bucks for some "codes" for a lifetime, which I highly doubt will really be a lifetime (theese fta sites get shut down every day).

My email address is johnny[AT]9qa.com ( replace the [AT] with @ )

I GREATLY appreciate EVERYONE's help and response, please hold your tongue for those few who only have something bad to say. I did search for DAYS now and I am getting really pissed off I can't find the files or the information.

If you guys have a membership, and would like to share with a brother, Sweet. I can EASILY create a website which will not get shut down in a matter of minutes so we can share the software with everyone else.

If anyone has some input no which reciever I should buy, money is not an object since all 5 recievers I found VERY close to the same price, there is like a $40 difference TOTAL from all 5. I am leining towards the ULTRASTAR since it has "auto key roll", "auto key grabber - you don't have to input the codes, you can just download them, From where you download I do not know and that is a very good question)" and "blind search".

Here's the actual info from the page;
Powered by IBM’s Power PC405 CPU, the UltraStar FTA is a 'Universal' FTA which means it combines the 'True' FTA capabilities (Blind Search) of a Pansat & Fortec as well as the Nagra Decoding & Auto Key Grabber Software the Silver Bullet & BlackBird possess ALL IN ONE. The UltraStar FTA can simultaneously connect to 4 different LNBs/Satellite Dishes; there are over 60 Satellites Networks to choose from in the Main Menu and can download over 3000 Channels!!

hxxp://www.directtvfiles.com/ultrastar.html (replace xx with tt)

Thank you VERY much again and I hope to hear back ASAP, I would like to purchase my system(s) multiple and get them running immediately. I read a WHOLE LOT of faq's and everything, but unfortunately I would still be considered a n00b since I do not have a smudge of experience with satellites.

A good question answered for me is, Dish network has installed a 4 room system in my building. I want to know how I can most easily watch tv on a 5,6,7,8-12 tv's (different channels) by buying extra recievers is fine, I just am unsure how how I can "split" the signal.

Can I simply add a 4-1 switch BEFORE the diplexor (if there is one, I don't know for sure) and the run another 4 cables out from the new switch into multiple diplxor's and then into multiple recievers? If so, how many times can I "Daisy Chain" 4-1 DiSEsc? switches together? (you know what daisy chain is right?, you take a cable, split it with a switch into 4 and then take those four OUT from the first switch and add 4 in 1 swtiches to those cables, making 16 out cables now and then run those to 16 diplexor's and finally to the individual 16 recievers) Will that work?

Cheers, happy new yearz, and may the satellite underground live forever!!!!
