I'm the lucky owner of a Trac Satellite modified Ferguson SRB1. It's got two extra boards fitted - one is a PAL decoder, the other seems to be a Eurocrypt card reader with an extender card to lead the card slot out of the back of the case.

Does anyone have a copy of the instructions for these (or any other) Trac Satellite receiver modification kits?

I ask because there appear to be a few hidden menus in the firmware ROM which allow the LNB offset to be adjusted, but I haven't been able to find a way to access them.

Cheers!
Phil.

This one was D2-MAC only but you might get some hints from the menu description. I might have a copy of the ROM somewhere. If anyone wants it, finding it may be the problem.

Nice one - thanks, s-band! That's a big help.
Looks like most of that applies to my box - I was wondering how to get to RGB tuning.

One thing my box seems to do which isn't covered -- if you press the SETUP button on the back, the OSD displays the software version, and the LED display changes to either "SE" or "dF". I'd love to know what that does, it doesn't seem to have any impact on the box's behaviour...

Cheers
Phil
