Ok, downloaded the lastest Hughes/Direcway software and loaded it into my SAthawk 3000, tested it by Loging on to IA6, (my system was set up on and working fine.) Would not lock on to "Sat. Found". Went back and loaded the lasted TV Sat data, which includes IA6, had no problem, locked on to IA6. Is there, a problem?????

Yes. It puzzled me to. Some versions there work on one thing but not on other. I guess you have to find which one is better meets your needs. I wish Sadoun's team would work on the problem soon.

the problem is sadoun didnt make the device. sadoun has the manual adjust it. i would rather get a birdog then to get a sathawk. reason that i dont have to calibrate it. its a hassle. i have 5 birdog's and 1 sf3000.. i use to own 2 sathawks i quickly sold it. cause its buggy and cannot manually change transponders when the transponder goes out. the sf3000 can

You can use the Satpicker to customize your satellite list in your Sathawk 3000 meter: http://satmeter.com/satpicker.htm

Yes, but can you pick satellites from more than one list? The problem is that some satellites in one list do not work but same satellite in another list (Version) does.
