ok guys i just wanna know how do dn/bev update their own recievers.. are the recievers capeable to update their recievers themselves? are they use card system which needs to be updated? i am talking about only original bev/dn recievers.. or are they done through sat rec signals etc? i am just curious.. KING Taperman, NAlin, LK , AV , ZULU what do you guys think.. share your knowlege and experties
they have a card which can be programmed by dn and bev,normally via a telephone line. also Sada Thank you for the remote i got it 2 days ago and am using ultra now
you are welcome African.. but i was told by LK " that nothing is done by phone line". they are just used for ppv's purpose only etc. so i was curious..
Don't think Bev does updates via phone lines unless they've changed since Dec. I was a paid sub and only needed the phoneline if I wanted the AutoPPV. In other words ordering a PPV without speaking to an operator. So Nalin you are wrong this time. First time for everything I guess.
Read Doreen's post about it a few day's ago and she confirmed it. It is not a question of "thinking". It is simply a matter of what happens to me and to Doreen.
It is not a question of "I believe". It is simply a matter of what happens to me and to Doreen. People can believe that the sun is smaller than the earth, and people can know that the sun is much bigger. Half the world's problems occur because of beliefs. People were actually burnt as witches, because they claimed the earth was round.
This question has been answered here before by someone and I can't remember...but wouldn't you think that if DN is technically capable of making the DN sub's stb work or not work that they could change keys whenever they wish or alter algorithm in the stb...King knows the answer to this I'll bet.
The primary use of the receiver that you will most likely experience as a tester is use of the antenna getting signals from ku fss broadcast satellites and/or from ku dbs broadcast satellites. Ku dbs signals are the higher band than ku fss signals and where the good stuff is such as Dishnet and Bell ExpressVu signal broadcasts. Ku fss satellites have the lower broadcast band than ku dbs and are typically where the True FTA channels can be found that are open with the exception of the Dishnet 105 and 121 satellites, which appear to be in the process of being phased out by Dishnet. Cband has the lowest broadcast frequency of the three. Each broadcast frequency requires its own type of lnbf or lnb to get its respective signal. Typical setting for ku dbs is an local oscillator frequency of 11250 which allows the receiver to pick up all the transponder frequencies in the ku dbs range and for Ku fss satellites the local oscillator frequency of 10750 is required. Another difference to keep in mind is the polarization types of each type signal. ku fss are typically called linear lnbfs that use a horizontal and vertical polarity, whereas the ku dbs uses a circular type polarity called left and right. Ku dbs satellites broadcast with a much stronger signal thus you see the smaller type dishes able to receiver the dbs signal as compared to the ku fss signals which require usually a dish in excess of 30" in diameter. The majority of Dishnet and all Bell ExpressVu signals are received on the smaller dish with circular type lnbf.
