Brand new at FTA. Bought a Coolsat 5000 on Fleabay. Seems to work ok, but right now using the left-over Directv dish (non-motorized and aimed at their birds). My Main Menu page is different the the one Iceberg did on his excellent review of the receiver. It doesn't have "System Information" bullet. When do a blind scan, it shows a couple of hundred TV channels (most encrypted) and about a hundred radio channels. But when I go to the "Channels" bullet, it only shows the TV channels and none of the radio channels. How do I see them? Thanks
 
Welcome to the site!!
I haven't used a 5000 in a long time, but to get to radio. Hit the TV/RAD button on the remote.

Time to get you a linear LNBF and retro fit on that Directv dish and aim at something like 97W and you can watch something. :)
Welcome to the hobby.
