Dragon CAM + Loader Card.....

[Miklos]

Also tried every scrambled channel on Sirius 5E and not a single one opened.

I thought this Dragon CAM was supposed to unlock 1000's of channels??????

The Dragon Cam does open two channels on 5E, the 2 Hustler porn channels I think.
No Cam is going to open 1000's of channels, and if someone claims it does then they are exagerating.
This is one of the better times for our hobby as we have 4 packages open:
Premiere 19E
TPS & Polsat 13E
Digi TV 1W
These will not last much longer so enjoy them while they are open.

OK ~ update!

Still cannot open anything on 13.0E, well not exactly true, I went to Multivision 1 and got some French subtitles on screen but no sound nor picture.
Went to Multivision 2, and after a short pause of a couple of minutes I got the tail end of a film (end credits going on), went to Multivision 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ~ NOTHING!

My transponder list for 13.0E doesn't even include the transponder you mentioned (10876/V/27500) and when I add it manually the signal goes from 88% on the previous transponder to zilch!!! It doesn't pick up anything at all, not a blip. Tried 10873/V/27500 signal dies again. Can't get Sci-Fi France at all. What's happening there then???

How long are you supposed to leave the channel on before something appears?

Tried again this morning before I left for work, put it on Multivision 2 (the one I caught the tail end of a Samuel L Jackson movie on) and it took ages before something came on again. I mean I'd made a cuppa, took the car out of the drive and made my sandwiches before it came on!!!! LOL

Went to M/V 3 left it for as long but nothing came on at all. Black screen!!!!

I'll try again tonight but it's getting very frustrating.

Cast your eye over this list of channels
_Dragon Cams ver 366 Updated to TPS + Premier AUTOUPDATE on eBay, also Digital Satellite Cards, Cards, Satellite Cable Freeview, Consumer Electronics (end time 30-Mar-08 19:05:49 BST)[/quote]OK, there's not 1000's but on 13.0E I cannot open a single one of those and I already have Pred 366 on my system!!!!!

Somethings wrong somewhere

You can not open TPS without getting the keys to update on one of the channels on 10873 V 27500

The problem isn't with the cam but with your receiver as you are not getting the channels to open.
There is a known problem with some telephones blocking some frequencies, but I can't recall which frequencies.
If you have a cordless telephone try turning it off and then scanning.
That list of channels is well out of date, available channels chage very quickly in this hobby as you will discover.

Thanks Mickha!

I do have cordless phones in the house, I'll try that what you said about switching them off tonight when I get home. Hope it works!

I'm a step nearer and learning something new by the minute, I've been doing some searching ~ as you do ~ and have found greekgeek's site and got myself a set of keys for Polsat, which I will give a go later on!

Thanks for your help though, it's priceless in my hour of need

We'll get there in the end it's not what you know it's WHO you know and I am no satellite expert by any stretch of the imagination
Now put a Les Paul or a Dommenget in my hand and it becomes a different matter completely

Wife's watching something on IRIB1 now so will key in the Polsat keys when she's done, then jobs a good 'un.

What a relief.... we can put this thread to bed now (yipee)
