Re: - - - - is all i get after latest fix
You can try the "Fail Fix" method or try loading factory file 119 or 131 using the serial cable. Check the ultra "General Help" section, you will see a few threads on this problem.

Loader2, null modem cable and load VIEWSAT_ULTRA_V131.pgm tomcat01
Works slick !!
Then use the USB Drive for the latest file.
Good Luck !!
