How do I Use the Viewsat VS2000 Satellite Receiver?

The Viewsat VS2000 is a satellite receiver that accepts free-to-air programming. It comes with many of the same features as a standard receiver, but if you are new to the equipment you need to know what all the functions are. Once you have gone over all the controls a few times, you should have no problem using your receiver and understanding the equipment.
