make sure your antenna is setup to the correct port in the menu and have the signal/quality and save it before you exit and scan. |

Tester I never install factory bin before new bin install and my ultra works fine. Now when I do install factory first and then the new bin I loose all my channles. So, rather than loosing all my channles i just install new bin . It works for me. |

I am getting all the other channels available on 61.5..Just having problem in getting the three I mentioned (584,585 and 586) Mad I learned alot from this site about ports and settings and thanks for your input but the only issue I am having is with these 3 channels. Do I have to scan a specific TP and how? |

I have tried everything Installing factory bin then loading the latest bin Installing satinfo file again Hard booting again and again befre scanning. I scanned it like 100 times and got all the other channels but still no luck. Like I said the issue is with only 3 channels.It's not like the receiver have some problem as I used to get these channels before with the same receiver I have now.Its just that I didnt use it for a long time because I was using Captive Works. |
