Trying to help a friend test DISH cards. I have read the Dish Guide, but am having trouble identifying what card he has. The number in the lower right corner on the back is in this format: xxxxxxxxx-AA (where the x's are all numbers). Does this look like a job for AVR3 or Blocker?

Here look at this list:

xxxxxxxx-A2012= ROM3
xxxxxxxx-AA-01= ROM3
xxxxxxxx-AA-02= ROM3
xxxxxxxx-AA-03= ROM10
xxxxxxxx-288-01= ROM2
xxxxxxxx-288-02= ROM3
xxxxxxxx-288-03= ROM10
xxxxxxxx-288-04= ROM3
xxxxxxxx-288-05= ROM3
xxxxxxxx-288-06= ROM3
xxxxxxxx-288-09= ROM10
xxxxxxxx-288-11= ROM10


your card should be among those listed :)
hopefully it's a open rom3 card :D

Dont worry bout that number ,the number you want is below the one you read ..its a tiny little one you need a magnifiying glass to read with.its way down right in the corner When you find it read herbgreens post and you will know what rom you have .You just wont know if its open or closed ...for that go to file "freetalk 1.3" in dos and read the read me...The x command will tell you that ...but READ the text to be sure how to do all whats needed ...making the diskette is the part that gave me the most trouble .I'm no hacker/geek by a long shot..
