thanks for the info! Iam new at this so please bear with me. What are pvr loaders 1.1 & 2 and where do I obtain them. Thanks again
The loaders listed in the instructions are old ones. When a new bin comes out, they usually come with a new loader. If you have a ultra you can load the new bin files with a usb stick into the usb port on the front of the ultra. You don't need a loader to do this. You can get tons of information from the fta pro support site. They have the bins and all the info you will need. Good luck
