Ok, i am a new to all of this. Currently i have a oval dish with 3 LNB's. Can i use this dish? also i have a signal meter, now if i get the pansat 2500a, does it come with directions on how to set it up. what does all the "Dave" Bev" and "charley" stuff mean, is it code for the 101, 110, and 119 sat's? please, any help is greatly appreciated

Yes....u will get charlie but there's only one thing that sucks with these fta's ..there's no program guide, unless u bring in bev, or use a tv guide....

James Millard I seriously doubt that a fta will pay for itself in a few short months. If by some miracle it last a year..... well then maybe. Just useless paper weights like hu junk is all fta's are going to be.

If you can get a key for a dealer card. alls you have to do is stop by a best buy and slip a card out of one of their display boxes! used to work for an electronic store and the cards would last a good 6 months until a reset and then just go get another, no ppv but everything else. you guys work way to hard!

To all the naysayers, take your negative B.S elsewhere. I paid 250. for my 2500a, and I dont care if it goes down tommorow. There are still 3000 other fta channels if bev and charlie do go down. It is a hobby that I find enjoyable.I make 250 in a day. I have been watching for 5 months now. At 4 or 5 dollors a video at the srore, do the math. That is if you can add.

PLEASE HELP... when i turn the power on...my pansat 2500a blinks the three lights then it says "on", then turns right off... after 30 seconds or so, it'll do the same thing... I'm not sure what to do... I can't even get back to the factory settings to reset it b/c it won't stay on long enough... i even unplugged it and powered it off for a day and it's still doing the same thing...

I have a 2500a w/ dtv dish. I aimed it towards 110 and was trying to get both 110 and 119. I am not seeing the channels from 119 like the HBO's that I should have. I think I am not seeing 119 or is there another reason for this mistake?
I am using DTV's dual lnb with the discq. switch.
Secondly, I tried to use the Fortec 30" dish with the HH90 motor and with the switching and fine tuning I lost the ability to reset the motor back to the 0 degree setting. So I switched back to the stationary Dtv dish. Can anyone help with tech on how to reset my motor to 0 degrees using my Pansat 2500a along with the HH90 motor?

ok for many this is the solution that will help u with no reception. if u had a regular setup, and now got a fta reciver and just hooked it up, u will NOT get to watch tv... the most common reasons are... u are using a twin lnb on a dish 500...u need a dishpro or a dual lnb syste...also VERY common is your switches, u MUCT use disque (probably wrong speling) switch, not the commonly used sw-21x, sw-21, sw-41!!!!

I have a DTV system that is being a pain in the butt. Im thinking of getting a FTA reciever and pick up DISHNET.

How good is the FTA, and is it a more stable system that wont go down like DTV.

IM AWARE THAT DTV IS DOWN, MAYBE OUT for a long time.

Any say on picking up BELL in Canada using FTA/ DTV. I mean legal wise. Too risky or what. I know its being done but whats your take on this. Im in TORONTO , CANADA.
Thanks in advance George.

And I heard, as it were, the noise of thunder: One of the four beasts saying: "Come and see." And I saw. And behold, a white horse.

There's a man goin' 'round takin' names. An' he decides who to free and who to blame. Everybody won't be treated all the same. There'll be a golden ladder reaching down. When the man comes around.

The hairs on your arm will stand up. At the terror in each sip and in each sup. For you partake of that last offered cup, Or disappear into the potter's ground. When the man comes around.

Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers. One hundred million angels singin'. Multitudes are marching to the big kettle drum. Voices callin', voices cryin'. Some are born an' some are dyin'. It's Alpha's and Omega's Kingdom come.

And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree. The v-i-r-g-i-n-s are all trimming their wicks. The whirlwind is in the thorn tree. It's hard for thee to kick against the p-r-i-c-k-s.

Till Armageddon, no Shalam, no Shalom. Then the father hen will call his chickens home. The wise men will bow down before the throne. And at his feet they'll cast their golden crown. When the man comes around.

Whoever is unjust, let him be unjust still. Whoever is righteous, let him be righteous still. Whoever is filthy, let him be filthy still. Listen to the words long written down, When the man comes around.

Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers. One hundred million angels singin'. Multitudes are marchin' to the big kettle drum. Voices callin', voices cryin'. Some are born an' some are dyin'. It's Alpha's and Omega's Kingdom come.

And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree. The v-i-r-g-i-n-s are all trimming their wicks. The whirlwind is in the thorn tree. It's hard for thee to kick against the p-r-i-c-k-s.

In measured hundredweight and penny pound. When the man comes around.

And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts, And I looked and behold: a pale horse. And his name, that sat on him, was Death. And Hell followed with him.
