GEOSATpro Comment about GSPMHD_0.13_11142012 firmware.

[primestar31]

I loaded the new firmware, GSPMHD_0.13_11142012 (which is an upgrade from my 8/20 previous load) and am in the process of re-scanning all my channels.

Anyway, so far the only issue I noticed is that the SM5 116.8 KU sat was set to coordinates W 118.8 when I was going to activate it. I changed it first to the proper 116.8 and then activated it.

I remember somebody else in a posting saying this WAY back I think on a former firmware.

I wondered why this error wasn't caught for the very latest firmware?

It's a little problem I know, but I thought I'd bring it up.

Other than that, so far so good, and I'm liking what I see with the way it handles.

I must have done something wrong. Guess I'll try again.

Did you perform the update via USB or satellite?

Is the Maincode date displaying 2012-11-14?

Noted and will be changed during next update. Overlooked as we were concentrating on the cycling reboot issue.

To save your changed position to be the default during a factory reset, Menu>>> Channel Manager>>> Save as Default

Yes. Are you in the footprint? Southern US and Eastern North America should have no problem receiving the C-band signals. KU-band footprint is South America.

Thanks Brian! I can live with a single missed bug.

I'm just glad this isn't a DISH receiver, because there probably would have been 5-6 MORE bugs introduced, after the new firmware fixed 3 previous ones! lol

Brian, as a beta tester for the latest release, is there any advantage if I upgraded?

No. You just had an advanced copy.

Thank you for your testing and sharing the results!
