I have not used this old receiver for a while. Went into the menu with password and accidently pressed Delete All. Screen is some menu I can't make out.Scrolling from top to bottom. Black and white. Did I erase the software or affect the firmware. Serial number is 0512K00959. Is the proper load...

What is the best software out for this unit? Can you load it on a USB drive and then download it into the Micro HD through its USB port?

Was on 1080i and attempted to change the aspect. Receiver went to blank screen with " Unsupport". Reboots, power off will not bring it back. This receiver is definitely not what everyone is bragging it up to be. Weak graphics, doesn't hold its sat position from sat list to next menu etc. Doesn't...

Need a good software and loader for my good old Coolsat 8000HD and also is there a good channel editor for the same? I heard that Ironsides, Eurosport, and Carlospr43 were all happy with their CS and am wondering what they are using for software. I have tried a few and they all seem to act up...

What is a good 22KHz switch to use to pass Diseqc commands V and H to Cband and Ku band LNBF in this situation? Does it have to be an Ecoda brand or are there others?

I goofed. The lnbf should have read BSC621 C/Ku 10750 LO. My apologies.

Thanks FaT Air for the good advice. At least it was good up to the part ( before running the lnb coax thru it). Are you running C or C/Ku? What is the reason you ran coax thru the GBox?

I want to hook up a BSC321 C/KU on my 10 ft prime focus dish and bypass its internal diseqc switch, separate C and Ku coax into house to VBox7 and DiSEqC 4x1 switch and Openbox S9 receiver. Does the VBox7 need a coax in from lnbf and out to operate properly? OR can I just power up the actuator...

LAZYFARMER A quick hi to everyone and good job. I just picked up an old Coolsat 8000HD to play with on HD. Am waiting for the new AZ Box to come out. Live up in the sticks in NE Alberta, Canada
