One IRD for DISH & BEV

[grubciu]

I know it is possible but can't find the info on convertion of a receiver (2700) to get both, dish and bev programs. Is anyone familiar wth this subject or know where to look for the info/schematics?

You cannot recieve both Bev & DishNet programming using the same reciever because they use different firmware and you'll need two seperate dishes to AIM at their respective birds.

I know about the dishes and as far as the firmware there needs to be a second chip installed and a selector switch. I've seen this work but it was just not possible to take a peak inside the ird. There has to be some info about this somewhere maybe other sites.
I will not give up - Will post if I find it.

I just know it is possible and it works with an AVR board connected to a PC and 2 different files (bev & dish)

Thats the mod, It's posted here in the forums as well. Uses a 2 meg TSOP 3900 IRD. Need still to have 2 dishes, One aimed at Dishnet and another at Bell. Use a A/B selector switch. Load up a card for bell and another for bev.
