I seem to be loosing my reception every time I shut of and restart my reciever. I have a Pansatt clone. Fortec. Any help guys ? Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give me.

The reason that Im shutting it off in the first place is to see if I can get my EPG updated. At present I have no channel shedule working.

We are close to an upgraded BIN - when 289T comes out, try it and see if the problem is resolved. I am hoping it will be out today.

This last question has one possible answer - a bad upload. You can reload the BIN and make sure you WAIT to get the flash ROM burnt properly.
Alternatively wait for 289T to come out and it will probably solve the problem anyway.

nuno Auiar ,

That last question could be caused by several situations not just a bad upload. A bad upload all thou extreamly rare still could be the source of your trouble.
In order to diagnose this problem we will need more information on your system. Could you post a description of the complete system including, what type of dish, switches used if any, splitters used if any, leanth of coax runs, anything you can. We may find the source of the trouble then. Thanks

As I suggested, for you are OK to wait for the 289T BIN, which is probable less than 24 hour away.

Do what you want ok. You can wait for 24 hours or more or you can post your system information and we may find your trouble faster. I am not here to bash others trying to help you I would just like to help you get the most out of your investment.

Thanks for the contribution guys. If the 289 is coming out soon anyhow, I might just as well give that a shot first. Thanks again guys.
