What's the limit on the number of satellites for a Coolsat 5000?

I just finished scanning in the entire arc, and want to export from my Pansat 3500 channel file to my Coolsat 5000 and after that into my Diamond 9000.

Hence the question.

Anyone have a quick answer?

Thanks!
 
If you can believe the specs its says 60. I have 60 listed in one of my channelmaster lists, I split the hybrid satellites into two separate satellites, one for ku and one for c band, thus the high number. I've noticed that the box is unstable at times with this list. I'm not sure if its the high number of channels I"ve got loaded or high number of satellites.
I noticed in channlemaster it shows a limit of 60 for the Coolsat 5000 as well.

Thanks Starman!

I thought that was the case. :)
 
sounds about right. I know on my Coolsat (after using ChannelMaster) there are a couple pages of "0.0E" sats...havent added them up but it probably equals 60 with the ones I have set up :)
 
Thanks Iceberg!

You are both correct.

Unless you trim the list down to 60 satellites, they get all jumbled up when loading into the Coolsat. :eek:

No problems into the Diamond though. :)
