Pansat 2800a - Only Foreign Channels

Hello All -

I have a Pansat 2800a receiver which I somehow got to go back to factory settings thus losing all my channels.

I went ahead and loaded the latest bin file. I then went into the installation and Attenae Setup and selected Echo8 (which I remember being the satellite I was using). After that I did a Blind Scan on Echo8.

The problem is I can only get Hindi/Foreign channels to show up on my channel list. Despite my name I do not enjoy the programming and would love to get back HBO etc.

I have reset to Factory Setting and rescanned many times.....What am I doing wrong?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Okay -

I got some of the channels to show up by changing the DiSEqC (don't know what it is, but it helped). I am still missing some channels (FX and BBC for instance). Still need help in getting that full list back. Any suggestions?

BBC and FX are on Echo 7,not on 8. Both are at EchoStar 7 Freq. 12384 H
BBC channel 135
FX... channel 137

I went ahead and did the same thing for Echo7. Got BBC back, but still no FX. Where can I download the latest bin file for the 2800A for free? The one I am using in back from Oct 22nd or so.
