Hi all, I have a Pansat 3500s. Been following the instructions here. Got the latest BIN file and flashed the reciever. I used Thrill's Dishnet codes, but i still get can get the reciever to unscrable the channels. I should be picking up from the ECHO sats right? My signal is ok at 90%.

TIA!

If U used the latest 3500 bin, then U don't need to install new DN keys...U just set the default keys and the autoroll will take over,if U wait and let it..as long as U have the dish aimed correctly and the remote antennae configured right..U should get 110 -119 Dishnet and 91 Bev, if U have the 3 LNB aligned ..

Thanks Thrill, I think alignment is the problem. Is there somewhere on the net where I can find the proper alignment of all 3 LMB's. I am getting 90% signal from ECHO sats but I dont seem to be picking up the right channels. I need to verify that they are pointed in the correct direction.
Thanks for your help,

I guess to re-clarify my question Thrill, which sat/direction do I need to point the single LMB dish and also for the 110/119 LMB dish. I think If i know which sat/direction I can get it from there...thanks

Aim towards Mexico...there are many satellite finder calculators software at every DSS site...U just enter your zipcode and it'll give U the direction in both azimuth and elevation where to aim the dish for each LNB..

1 LNB = 1 satellite...110 W....dishnetwork
2 LNB = 2 satellite...119 W...dishnetwork
3 LNB = 3 satellite...91 W....Bell express Vu
