How to Enter FTA Satellite Receiver Keys
This document explains the process of updating free to air receiver keys. In most cases, free to air satellite receivers to do have the controls for inputting new decryption keys.
As previously explained here, satellite television operates on the principal of locked (scrambled) signals. These signals require a key to unlock (unscramble) them. The keys used to unlock scrambled signals change very frequently. Satellite television subscribers need not worry about keys or entering in codes, however those using free to air satellite receiver boxes have to contend with ever changing keys. To complicate matters, changing the keys is not as easy as it seems. It is easy - the second time around. The first time requires a small investment of your time. The problems are basically, navigation within the receiver, where to actually change the keys, and of course where to get the current keys. (www.freekeys.info) has you covered for all of this.

FTA receivers have minimal controls on the set top box itself, and changing decryption keys requires usage of the remote control. There are many different types of fta satellite receivers, with absolutely no common ground between them. Remotes are all different, and on screen displays within the set top receiver are also varied. Fortunately, each receiver has an onscreen legend to help.
The first problem - how do you actually navigate to the menus to change the keys? (read below for instructions)
The second problem is where are the letter buttons? Each remote has typically numbers 0 to 9. Letters can be found onscreen, in the legend at the bottom of the onscreen menu.
