need help getting started.

[jrsbasura]

whats up everyone, I got my receiver today (cw800s), I tried to get it going but didn't happen. I couldn't find sat (110), I though I was on 110 on the installation menu when I was looking for the signal. I got up to 80 on the strengh and 75 for the quality but it was for ehcostar 1,2. Im in the states (westcoast). when I turn to a channel it says "scramble program" what does that mean? do I need to download anything to even just watch true sat channel? can I view channel on (110) without downloading anything? What do I need to do once I find the signal that Im looking for?

Thank You

heres a couple of link for some dish pointing tools that might help.
A wal mart or kmart compass from sporting good will also help.

You may need need to be a vip member to down load them.

you need to get a copy of bin 1.93 and load to your box and put in the correct serial number from warranty card or off bottom of the box and then get a coppy of bin 1.99 and load it
put in antenna settings
once you find 110w it will show above the signal meter then autoscan the sats then exit out to the channels and hit f1 000 on remote and on tv screen it will say patch enabled

I installed the bin 1.93 but didnt ask me to enter a serial number or anything like that. should I reenter it again so that I can enter the serial number of the box?

Thank You
