Hi M8s
Have had silver Echostar for a number of years 3600 Viacess silver....have motorized dish 1.2 SE England.....use the old Dragon Cam predator...so basically getting at the moment D+ and Premiere.
It seems out of date as when I tried to find Digi TV its not capable so its a change of receiver...suggestions please esp as its 36v motor controlled.
Its either Linux box or one of these CS items innovation/Nanoxxx.
cost is if Disc need Vpower £38....if CS STB need wireless internet bridge by internal electricity supply mains plug £85.00 or wireless bridge £60.
Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Have top notch Sony LCD screen full High Def.
thanks
GF 58

The silver Echostar 3600 has no problems with Digi TV, I've been using mine for these channels, using both a Dragon and Diablo cam.
Can you please provide more details of the problems you're experiencing.

Thx guys for response.

@Mickha.. just being a twot got me TPs mixed up wiv me PIDS now found Digi TV

@Sunderland 1955...yeah know I could use old Echo for positioner but would need aerial splitter and need the space and V box would be preferred route. It really comes down to which receiver is future proof as it can be and can get most channels to open

Any further ideas ?

not sure if u can see Hustler on Sirius - not tried myself. If you can see Digitv, I would have thought your stb is as up to date as necessary. I think the last update was v1100? - not been any since then

I think he can view Hustler, using the Predator he has loaded, I assume "see above" refers to his original first post regarding recommendations for a new receiver.
