Hi, haven't introduced myself... I'm Shelley. It wasn't until recently I decided to take it upon myself to find answers on how to obtain a program for my pansat 3500. I didn't want to harrass the guy I bought it from. I managed to put in a key awhile back to get a few channels when it was completely out. (For most of you... you're rolling your eyes right now... but it was a big deal to me) I'm still a little uninformed as to what a "BIN" is... its purpose and how it differs from a key code. What are the precautions or risks with this? And... what I need to know about it to make it work (when available) If you are bored by this post... I'm sorry... I'm just trying to find someone who doesn't mind taking the time to explain a little for me. I appreciate any help and info. Thank you!
