    Need Some help......!

    Hi, been of the scene for a while now with loadin new firmwares and all that, and got a feeling I need to do a upgrade....

    Basically though my box (500c) now only receives normal channels..... Others now display 'No Signal being sent' or 'Signal Cant be De-Scrammbled'. I've heard they've done somethin with the signal, and ever since receiving the new cards it screws the signal up.....

    Any advice would be muchly appreciated.

    Thanks

    If you have recieved new cards in your area check the list you might have switched to the new encryption system which means its game over for you and will only get FTA channels clearing as there is no fix.

    No, its not that easy on a 500 box!

    You also have to add all the components necessary to supply LNB power and the various H/V power signals.

    If you get a copy of the 500S schematic diagram, you will see the components that need to be added. so you'd be better off selling the 500C and buying a 500S replacement as you'll almost certainly miss something crucial if you try to swap things.

    Hi Berley

    Did you manage to get your 500c up and working in the end?
