Ok now i know that lots of people are having trouble with keys and there sayng i got a "scrambeld or bad channel" i got a "wait for picture". and there saying complains like "i cant get any channels" or like "are my keys right"

These are some questions that people have asked and I got answers

Q: if it says " wait for picture" and the number is increasing and you get no picture?
A: This is for people that have either pansat or fortec. So you first need to check if you have the latest keys. And check if you have the latest bin.

Q: If it says " scrambled or bad channel" and you are waiting and getting no picture?
A: This is usually for all recivers. So you also need to make sure you got the latest bin and keys.

Q: If you got no quality and you only have a signal?
A: This means that your reciver is connected to the dish that you want but it is pointing in the wrong direction so fix the angle the dish is pointing and you should get quality.

Q: If your signal is like 0-30% and you got 0% quality and your sure that your dish is pointing in the right direction?
A: Dont worry this does not mean your dish is pointing in the wrong direction this means that the cable connected from the dish to your swtich is not working so either change the cable's DiSEq's number or if it still dosent work you have to change the swtich.

Q: If only one channel is not working and everything else is?
A: This means the that channel's frequency is not connected to that satellite so to fix this problem either rescan that TP and if it still dident work you have to wait till the frequency is updated

Q: If a one of your satellite is not working in DN or BEV and the other one is working?
A: This means that that sattellite's provider for DN or BEV got update. For example: the DN provider changed from 01 01---->01 06 and echo3/ku does not work anymore. So you have to change the bin to the newst bin and that satellite should work.

Hope this helps!

My signal is 0-13 on some tp's I have a sv8000 w/8psk and a 1000.2 dish that has a built in switch. I just ran a new rg6 from the lnb direct to the stb and still have the same problem. I don't think my lnb is bad as I also have a dp500 aimed at 82 & 91 and it does the same thing if I run direct to the stb on them birds too. Think it may be the stb now. Was new and put in service May 1 2008. Every thing was fine until I loaded the VO323P fix This sure has me stumped. Any help would sure be great.
