New member Username: Sky85Post Number: 1 Registered: Nov-07 | Hi all. Ive been refering to this forum for what seems like a century but this is the first time I am posting because unlike some, I try to read before I ask. However, At this point I am spinning my wheels. When downloading the latest BIN for my VSPlat, I am only getting echostar 7 channels. I also want Echostar 8,6 or 8,10 channels. I live in the North East. I have located some channel lists and uploaded them using channel master or Loader2. However, when I put my box on, the channels begin in the 4000's. I was wondering how I can get the all inclusive channel lists for echo 7,8,6 with the channels beginning on 100. I appreciate your help. |

New member Username: Sky85Post Number: 3 Registered: Nov-07 | Thanks for responding Sada. I have had the viewsat for about 2 years now. Originally, I had echo 8-119 and echo 7-110 along with globecast. My channels ranged from 101 up to the 800's plus some channels in the 8000s and 9000s. But when i installed the latest BIN for VS2000plat, and when I installed the channel list for 110 and 119, all the channels were relocated in the 4000s with no type of order. I hope I am not too confusing. |
New member Username: BushdamanPost Number: 6 Registered: Nov-07 | hope im not stepping on toes here, but if everything worked before what i would do is a factory set in menu and rescan both sats. then make sure sort by sid is on in menu. hope this helps. btw i never use preloaded channel list they really just mess things up. |
Silver Member Username: Saqeeb9000Post Number: 334 Registered: Oct-07 | yes john is right.. do a factory reset and then reload a bin .. this will solve the problem... |
New member Username: Sky85Post Number: 4 Registered: Nov-07 | Hi John, thanks for getting back to me. After i do a factory default, and then rescan, I only get channels for echo7-119. I check the box for echo 8 but non of the channels, i.e. Science Channel, come up. |
New member Username: BushdamanPost Number: 8 Registered: Nov-07 | go into setup and see if your disq settings are correct. the new bin might have changed them menu-installation-dish settings code for pass is 0000 |

Post Number: 12 Registered: Jul-07 | if you scan 1 sat at a time for channels make sure you scan the 110 before the 119. i know with my cnx i find the same problem when i try to scan for channels. and also make sure the disq switch is set up right ex: disq 1=119, disq 2=110 |
