NOPE They are going all Nagra 2 this month, by the time you get the stuff it will be too late.
besides that is a cardless IRD no way to test with it.

Thanks for your reply the RECEIVERS are 3100 / 010.

the 3100 and the 301.10 and 301.13 can be tested with on Bev (this month only) or Dish

The easiest way is to reflash them with a dish flash, there are other ways but I prefer to reflash.

Point your dish at 119 first (it will say wrong sat) then change the IRD, that way you know you have a signal.

The new ones (3150)will most likley be cardless that you can not test with they will not be 3100 any more, they are coming out with re-furbised IRD's simalar numbers but different inside.

But other IRD's are getting cheap, the 301-10 is a good one and like $50 now.

A lot of the trade ins are going to be coming back as cardless too, no matter what they look like on the outside.
They are not going to throw all those trade ins away, just make them cardless and sell them again. Be careful what you buy.

Are you sure you didn't buy a 3120? That's the package that comes with a 3100 receiver and a 20 inch dish. If naming convention holds, that would mean you got a 50 inch dish with your 3150 package. I could be totally off on this, but I bet you got teh 3120 package. If you got a package with a model 3100/301.10, you can test with it.
