I'm in US and need US firmware or at minimum US satellites loaded in the meter. At this point i can add (or change existing) satellite manually and it locks the signal but this not what i paid for. meter came with USB port. i can connect USB stick and it reads it but don't show me the files on it. i need some information in terms of correct file extensions. what should be correct files extension for satellite file. what should be correct file extension for software upgrade file... are these .bin files OR .upd OR .ddb...?, i have UartTool as well as Update Tool but i don't thing i need these tools that requires serial connection to PC. i should be able to upload satellite file using USB stick via USB port on meter. i do have questions on serial connection to upgrade software but that is later. right now i just need US satellite file upload. i have found this file on this form and meter won't read that file either on USB stick. if anyone has any experience please reply. i have spent almost three days trying to figure this out and not successful.
