I have a new pansat 2700 and was able to get some satellites set up. I can get the channel guide to come up, but all my channels are locked, with the exception of the free channels advertising the satellite companies. Any ideas?

Last night I did a factory reset and rescanned the satellites. I am not 100% sure that I have the right ones, but I did see that I had good signal and quality, almost 90% if not better. When I do the scan, the channels list with a dollar sign beside them and I cannot view them. The screen says "bad channel or scrambled," or something to that effect. I also get a few channels without the $ sign and am able to view them, but they are the information channels, such as dish network information. Also, I get a channel called ANGL, I believe, and a few NBA channels. But, still no TBS or USA or the like. I am hooked up to a dual dish network and have the number one plugged into the pansat sat in. Any other ideas? I really appreciate the help.

check your switch out side to see what ports you have each lbn going to like echostar 7 port 1 and echostar 8,6 on port 2 and so on if these setting are not correct youll not get your channels also make sure you have the lastest bin file for 2700

With the new BINs for 2700, you have two types of switch settings in the Antenna setup -

1.0 - Ports 1,2,3 and 4 or None
1.1 - Ports 1 to 15 or None.

The port setting suggested by alton vann penny are usually related to 1.0
