[QUOTE="doorguru, post: 1146939, member: 418516"] I have scoured the internet for many hours and days.. There is no US binary file available for the WS-6906, only European, Asian, Australian, ect..I tested all seven that I have downloaded.. It was a waste of time. The only way (that I know of) to get the US binary file is: 1. Find it on the internet (I have downloaded 7 different files and none of them have US satellites, so good luck.) 2. Get another owner of a US WS-6906 to send you a dump file downloaded from their working unit. (good luck on that.. I have reached out on US satellite forums with no luck). If I saw a request like that and had a working US WS-6906, I would do that for anybody in a heartbeat. 3. Order a new WS-6906 from eBay, download the dump file, and then send the unit back using the return guarantee. (Just joking of course, but it is tempting.) But.. If you end up doing this, please send me a copy! :) Until you can find the right binary file, there is no need in making the cable. If you find a binary file that you think will work, PM me and I will let you know. (Look at my previous post that lists 6 binary files that I have tried. If it is one of those, it will not work for US satellites.) You can also delete all the European satellites in your WS-6906 and enter the ones you need manually. It is a PIA, but it is possible.
