makin the move this weekend and struggling with a couple questions. just got a dish 5000 receiver with original card. has not been in the stream since '99. rom3 rev372 this receiver was originally used as a showroom unit for a dealer.

after 10yrs with dave and a couple weeks of being a charlie newbie im a lil intimidated. if i understand correctly, my rcvr and card are perfect for testing if the "showroom thing" doesnt hurt me. also am under the impression that all i need is software to retreve the keys from the card instead of using a jtag to pull from the receiver - please correct me if im wrong.

all advice is greatly appreciated!!!!!!!

Nagraedit is the card program. You will need a ISO 3.68 mhz card loader. Old H card lodaers can sometimes be used by changing the Crystal for 3.57 to 3.68 mhz. After you read the card click on data editor and you will have the ird in hex and the receivers boxkeys from the card.
