Its a HDR-8130USB. I've tried looking on the ROSS site for any firmware but I can't seem to download anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have been struggling for days now trying to get somewhere.
Are you getting a signal on your sat finder, if you are and you still cant get any channels, your on the wrong satellite. There are 2 sats very close together. Once you get a signal try moving the dish to the side very slowly and you should pick up the right one. Took me ages the first time I tried.
Good luck with it.
