Since the Viewsat Ultra has a USB port on it, we include a 1GB memory stick to make the firmware and channel list upgrades much easier.  We have received feedback from owners of older models that do not have USB that it can be frustrating having to disconnect the receiver from the entertainment center and TV and then bring the receiver to the computer room for an upgrade.  Now you save the FTA bin file onto the memory stick and then plug it into the receiver.  It's a simple process in the onscreen menu to upgrade from USB memory stick.  Now you can leave your receiver connected to your TV fulltime. All FTA receivers and satellite dish systems include our in-house produced exclusive CD-ROM that will introduce you to the world of free to air satellite. It has step by step instructions for the newbie to install and enjoy this amazing free satellite hobby.
