I'm progressing, even tho this is getting on my nerves. I have a good signal and only get 1 working channel GOAL TV...Spanish Soccer! All my other channels have a dollar sign in front of them and say scrambled. I have a Pansat 3500 SD and a DishPro 500

If anyone can help, i'd appreciate it. my email is cabrunet@aol.com

the $ just means its a scrambled channel. Almost all channels on Dih Network or BEV will have that. All you need to do is make sure your key's are updated with the latest. I just posted a thread here a hour or so ago with the working keys.

if you need help just ask I have a working pansat 3500

Jay, thnx for the quick reply. I was told I have to get into the parental controls to set the keys, from there i can enter oooo and get a new screen, cas screen or something, that doesnt happen for us. Any more help? Thnx.

Heres how to updat the key's on your pansat 3500SD

Menu button
select Parental Controls
2nd PIN/enter 0000
Nagravision
Select dishnetwork (top right, use r/l arrows)
scroll down
select key 0
scroll down
enter the new keys (the letter keys are shown on the screen by function key). Check them carefully.
scroll up
select key 1
enter the new keys (same letter keys as above - bottom of screen). Check them carefully.
Hit and hold OK until it flashes (red, bottom right) on the screen.
exit out and watch TV

only thing I want to add is be sure and Hit and hold OK until it flashes (red, bottom right) on the screen several times while putting in keys. Also after you put keys in both lines read them to be sure you got it right just one # off and it wont work.

To get to the keys go to parent control and go DOWN to second one and just put in 0000 its easer than it looks. It got me too at first.

I want to thank you for your help. I don't know what I did, but I GIVE UP. Today all I get on the TV is snow, and the pansat remote doesn't let me do anything. It's not the batteries. =(

did you push the stb button on the remote? It tells the remote to control the receiver. Also can you turn on the receiver with the buttons on the receiver? get to the channels with those buttons?
