darklistThanks for the help, I think that I might have it programed now. I just need to figure out how to get the keys from this site onto my USB stick or do I have to imput them manually. And I notice in my reciever uses 08, 09, 88 and 89 but on this site it uses 86 and 96, do I need to change my 88 and 89 to say 86 and 96 or are these not the right keys for my machine??? Any clarification on this would be greatly appreciated. Sorry for being so confused and thanks for any help anyone can give.

There is a easy way. A program in the loaders section called VSkey will make a OPkey file you can load, load the keys with your USB. There is manual entery as well.

Hi! 
I need a little help... Im going to buy Viewsat 9000 V2 soon and i just wanted to confirm that it will work on my dish and i wont need anything else...
I've got a 20' Original Bev dish with SW21 pointed onto 82 and 91 sat's. AS i understand i will not need a 8 psk thing to get HD, right? How many HD channels will i get? Somewhere in the forum i saw that Bev has very limited channels, why is that?
Thanks in advance!

Just bough Viewsat 9000 V2
Software is in, everything seems to be working fine, got about 600 channels working, 55 HD(Sat's 91 and 82)...but, im found out that SW41 that came with the receiver gets lesser signal than my SW21, so i decided to use SW21 for now. Still some channels take a long time to start... does anybody else has this problem?

I don't know of anyone else having this problem and I don't test the 9000 hd but you can try the following see if it will work....
Viewsat 9000 HD Boot Loop Fix Version 2
Running this file takes some time, so don't be in a hurry and please wait until it is done installing. Use this file when your Viewsat 9000 HD is stuck in a 'boot loop'.
This is when your receiver displays "BOOT", "00:00 am", "ON" and then cycles back to "BOOT" and repeats the sequence, never to actually turn on. Not recommended for any other problems.
Use PVR Loader and serial cable null it's work so fine
