Just wanted to say hi ; This is my very first post :-)
I have a BEV 5820 that I'm currently subscribed to BEV with but have tired of the $$$ I pay every month for the service; I have no idea how to hack a box and am wondering if anyone can giveme some direction as to what I might need to do to get there; My BEV subscription will expire in about a month & I'd like to be able to continue using the PVR.
Any direction anybody can provide for me would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your words of advice.

Not sure if you still need help as this is one week old now.

If you are getting some channels it is working and you just need to make a few setting to get it correct. The 8-17 bin is no longer autorolling at this time but still works with manula key changes.

This is what need to be done to get all the channels.
These settings will work for the jb1000 AND mUAH channels files.

1. Click Menu
2. Click Installation
3. Click Antenna Setup
4. On jb1000 bin, click on Echo 6,8; on mUAH bin, click on Echostar 110. Set the top 4 settings as follows:
LNB Type = Dish-Pro
LNB Local-Freq. = 11250
22kHz = ON
DiSEqC = sw21 - 1; legacy twin - 3
5. If no signal strength, move down two places to the transponders.
6. If the current transponder number (number in parenthasis) is equal to or less than 20, push the right arrow button one time. If the transponder number is greater than 20, repeatedly push either the right or left arrow button until you are on transponder 2. If you now have a signal, push the Cancel button, then press the Select button to save. Otherwise, repeat step 5.
7. On jb1000 bin, click on Echo 7; on mUAH bin, click on Echostar 119. Set the top 4 settings as follows:
LNB Type = Dish-Pro
LNB Local-Freq. = 11250
22kHz = OFF
DiSEqC = sw21 - 2; legacy twin - 4
8. If no signal strength, move down 2 places to TP.
9. If the current transponder number is equal to or less than 20, push the right arrow button one time. If the transponder number is greater than 20, repeatedly push either the right or left arrow button until you are on transponder 2. If you now have a signal, push the Cancel button, then press the Select button to save. Otherwise, repeat step 8.
10. Click Cancel twice, then click on User Setup.
11. Move down to Time Setting and click on it.
12. Use the left or right arrow button to set the Time Zone to your own.
13. Move down one line and click on the time.
14. Click the down arrow 3 times.
15. Enter the time in 24 hour format, then push Select to exit the Time and Date screen.
16. Push Cancel 3 times.
17. As soon as you have TV, try changing the channels. The receiver will have probably stopped responding to the remote.
18. Push the Power button on the front of the receiver and hold it until the receiver turns off. Let go and the receiver will reboot.
19. When it stops again, repeat step 18. You should only have to do this a total of 3 times, then your receiver should purr like a kitten, unless you unplug it.
20. If you unplug it, you will have to repeat step 18 3 more times. You already set your TZ and 22kHz settings in steps 4 and 7, so you shouldn't have to do it again.
