Hi,
I'm new here and, indeed, new to all of this satellite stuff, but I just received a shiny Manhattan Starlight MX with builtin Matrix Reloaded CAM today.
So far so good - I plugged it in (to my 19.2 dish which I installed some time ago) and I can receive loads of free channels.
What I don't know though, and what I hope someone can help me out with, is what should I be able to receive "out of the box" with this bit of kit?
I've found lots of talk of keys and encryption schemes, I've found a PentaCrypt module in my Common Interface section (v1.10) and read lots of posts from people wanting to upgrade their internal Matrix CAMs. Is this something I should want to do? What can I do with these keys I find on the web? Do I need to buy a smartcard or something?
If anyone could take a second to either point me to a useful site or post or even fire out a few words of guidance for a total newbie, it would be extremely useful!
Thanks,
Gordon
