you need to use the v105 factory file for the Viewsat 7000. So, write down your antenna settings. Do Factory Default. write the v105 factory file. Do another Factory Default. Load the latest New GUI 3rd party bin file. Do one more Factory Default. Then, setup satellites and rescan channels.

This will debrick your receiver.

As far as a cleaner file goes, writing the original factory 3 times followed by doing 3 Factory Defaults will "clean" your EEPROMs thoroughly to send you unit in.

Your problem sounds like not you are not properly factory defaulting and scanning channels periodically, which needs to be done from time to time.

Hope This Helps !!
