Funny how you got offended. If you were selling a LEGAL 2500, you probably wouldn't be offended when PSB said that :D

I'm not bashing it. I have a Pansat 1500, a crappy FTA (cant remember the model) and a Uniden C/Ku band receiver. All of these are LEGAL (key word there) FTA receivers. they are not modified in any way and receive Free To Air programming, not hacked to receive Dish &/or ExpressVu, or as the hackers say D*** & B3v

We just don't condone hacking of receivers to receive programming illegally and that is what you are selling.

Done with this one............................................... .

Did FTA man say it was brand new and never used before?

If it was brand new never used how would that be considered a hacked reciever?

I can get a receiver, download the hack software, and say "never used"

Mr FTA person tried this before and his post got deleted

He could also get a receiver and not knowing what he was doing, completely screw up the orignal software and say it was never used. At the price he wants, I suspect this is closer to the correct scenario. Why would he sell something here when he could go to one of the auction sites and get newly twice that much?

I guess that after tonight they are not too good at stealing Dish Network anymore. Look for a lot of sales on this stuff on Ebay soon. :)

Dish and Bell put out a HUGE ECM tonight that basically took everyone down.

Well, don't care what he wants to sell considering its a free country. Just wanted to know why he stole the individuals money plain and simple. For your information Pansat 2500A in it's native form is not a hacked receiver. Don't know why you continue to comment on this one issue.

FTA Michael
08-16-04, 05:55 PM
The Pansat 2500A looks like a great receiver; it got a very nice writeup in the July-August issue of Tele-Satellite International magazine. From what I (cough) gather, it's possible to reprogram the 2500A, and if it's done incorrectly, it's possible to render the receiver unusable and unrecoverable.

When someone tries to sell such a hot-selling critter for well below market price "Just To Get Rid Of It", that suggests the buyer is likely to be disappointed.

Remember the first rule of avoiding scams: If a deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is. :)

Good. You have to wonder about people who come to a public forum and admit that they are trying to steal signals from a company that monitors the public forum they are posting to.

Posting shouldn't be a problem for anyone if you aren't promoting illegal activities, including hacking or stealing an encrypted signal. Post away.

You ask how to hack a receiver or something of the nature...we will flame you :)

Visit the Lyngsat website (do a Google search). It lists the available channels and feeds. There's quite a bit of free stuff up there. It's a great hobby--good luck!

The intial question did not ask anything about hacking. He said he wanted to sell his Pansat. FTAMan has a history here. He keeps trying to post hack information and spams. He has had several posts closed in the past for this reason. Without knowing his history you wouldn't be aware of this so I can understand your confusion.

Here is a list of some of the FTA channels you can get "you get most of the green channels with DVB beside it" they also need to have a five digit Frequency to be Ku band.

Here is a list of some of the FTA channels you can get ...
http://www.lyngsat.com/freetv/United-States.htmlNo, that's actually a list of FTA channels that originate in the United States. Some are carried only in Europe or Asia. The foreign-originated channels that are available in the US aren't listed.

Anybody ever notice that sticky thread at the top of this topic? The one that says "Free to Air Channels for North America"? The one you can reach here: http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=28132 ? Well, that's a really good place to start when you're looking for the FTA channels you can receive around here.

Thats why I said "SOME" and "MOST"

Being a satellite installer and dealer I thought it made more sense sending people to the world leaders Lyngsat and not other dealers websites!

If you worked at MacDonald's would you send people to Burger King for info on burgers?

Or would you send a monkey to the store for a bag of peanuts?

If you worked at MacDonald's would you send people to Burger King for info on burgers?If the BK across the street had a kids' playground and my McD didn't, and if a family came in asking about a playground, then yeah, I'd send them over there. If enough families did the same, I'd start looking at the economics of adding a playground.

Maybe you could create and maintain the best list of visible FTA channels. Then I'd be happy to tell everybody about you. :) Remember, the easiest way to put yourself on the map is to print the map.

Actually your wrong

as a former pirate the correct names for the services are

Dish Network - Charlie
Direct TV - Dave ( some conversity over wither or not it was because of Dave Lee Roth song I just a jigalo where the sign behind said (dtv then underneth Dave TV ) or From David Bayer VP and head of security of Direct TV

Bell Express Vue, most just use BEV, more of the inner circle will call it Natasha ( rocky and bullwinkle reference) from the one time that the head tech at Bell Express who name is Borris got on a channel only hacked cards would get and condemed them.

People who are using FTA systems for dish/bev are known as Freetvers, The now majority of what use to be a highly techincal hobby. While this has been mention before I left because the whole hobby had turn into one of greed and FREETV Most of the Vets in that illegal hobby has since left while others have stayed to make small fortunes.

Given his record i would say that he probably selling it though probably been wiped clean.

Is the end of FTA over only time will tell. While the nagravision 2 swap out is out will temporary or maybe even long term stop pirates. Depending if NDS is up to it's old tricks ( yes NDS the people that make Direct TV cards are the ones who orginally cracked nagravision one to try keep clients from moving for a over hacked Videoguard system to Nagravision) Also it is possible for Dish Network to alter the firmware of the boxes , while many felt that they were safe from a Hardware ECM because they were dishnetwork boxes. One thing going for dish is the same thing that makes them piratable the use the same processor STI 5500 in since it would use the same processor calls dish could tell the reciver to alter is firmware. while it would not stop fta hackers fro simple fixing the box it would be one more annoying deterient.

Personally I dont belive forect star or pansat enjoy seeingthere products hacked that is why i suggest a system to both of them on how to easily digital sign firmware updates to keep unauthorized hacked firmware getting on to the boxes.

stonecold, it's naiive to think that fortec and pansat don't like the fact that their receivers are hacked. a few months ago the hacking community found the "hacked" firmware software on fortec's ftp server (n00bs don't bother looking. it's not there anymore). Aside from that you can clearly find remnants of hacked code when searching a legit firmware.

While the companies are not going to come out and say they make the hacks, they are also not going to condemn the hacking. I would venture to guess that they make a lot more money by selling to freetvers than they do to FTAers.

Disclaimer: just because I know what's going on does not mean I participate.

stonecold
10-12-04, 10:44 PM
Oh,

difference is I know who made the orginal firmware hack for the fortec;s which was later adapted for pansat. Yes I wont argue the fact that unoffically pansat and fortect are not happy that people are buying there units .... On the offical side they seem willing. I am sure about time Echostar steps in and warns them they will be a little more serious about it. As the first thing will happen is echostar steps in. I will except to eventualy see a Digitally signed firmware at one point.

Also like I satated above do to the since it based on the same sti 5500 processor dish could do a checksum check of the firmware and if matches one of the 4 different checksums of the current illegal software there and then disable the firmware by deleting key sections of code from the firmware.
