I sent that file at least 5 times to your email address and they did not come back so I assumed you got them.

Sorry i haven't received any mail with the file from you yet, probably it's deleted somewhere in the system because of spam.

i had this same problem where the birdoggie wasnt finding a signal with the meter but with my cheapo Microyal receiver, it worked like a champ. You can try doin this: switch between H and V polarity when you download the latest sat file. That seemed to work for me on occasions...

Yes labrasa with the new file in mine, it is listed as Galaxy-25, dont have Galaxy-26 in mine have so can not answer that 1 fer you. but i have so maney sats in mine cant have em all, an got the 2.5 version, an that only holds 32 sats.
Now the signal on mine is up but Q always been low but they work fine real good tool for fine peaking in of a dish. but 1 peice of advise will give you is load all 4 types of lnbs for gal-25 Universal Vertical & Horizonal, an also load Standard lnb V & H, on the bird dog screen will come up KV & KH then for universal it shows UV & UH.
Now when i peak a dish in always use the vert 1st alot stronger on Q on 75cm dish 30 to40 on Q on vert an on horz about 10 to 20 on Q. then switch birdog over to horz an go for the real fine tunning of the dish an lnb. an on 90cm dishes signal about 50 percent higher. hope all helps you out....1Captain

I know - this truly sucks. I should never have downloaded the new files - the old files using "Telstar 5" worked just fine; I broke the cardinal rule of "if it ain't broke don't fix it." Oh well...

Ok so what i have found out the birdog company is not doing a very good
job in upgradeing there software,,, the software they have is mainly for hues and dish net. If you are trying to find telstar 5 or what is now called galaxy 25, your not going to find it with the birdog meter,, not unless there programer's get off there dead asssssss,,, and correct this problem, for the kind of money you have to spend for these meter's you would think they would have better support..
they do not answer emails.
I too used to have the old software that showed tel-star 5 and it worked great,, and like a dummy i thought if i upgraded to the one that showed galaxy 25, i would be better off.. wrong. now i got a worthless peace of junk.
