WCF and .NET 3.5: receiving large arrays

I am struggling to understand what I am doing wrong. I have a simple interface that accepts an array. I can't make it to handle more than ~150 items - getting back 400 Bad Request. What am I doing wrong? Can anyone spot anything? I looked thru this post and it appears to be the answer but it doesn't work for me: WCF maxReceivedMessageSize not being read from config.

The service is hosted in IIS7 and uses .NET 3.5. Here is my web.config:

    <system.serviceModel>
    <bindings>
        <basicHttpBinding>
            <binding name="MyService.basicHttpBinding" maxReceivedMessageSize="5000000" maxBufferSize="5000000">
                <readerQuotas maxStringContentLength="5000000" maxArrayLength="5000000" />
            </binding>          
        </basicHttpBinding>
    </bindings>

    <behaviors>
        <serviceBehaviors>
            <behavior name="MyService.Service1Behavior">
                <!-- To avoid disclosing metadata information, set the value below to false and remove the metadata endpoint above before deployment -->
                <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
                <!-- Please set this to false when deploying -->
                <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="True" httpHelpPageEnabled="True"/>
            </behavior>
        </serviceBehaviors>
    </behaviors>

    <services>
        <service behaviorConfiguration="MyService.Service1Behavior" name="MyService">
            <endpoint address="ws" binding="wsHttpBinding" contract="IMyService">
                <identity>
                    <dns value="localhost" />
                </identity>
            </endpoint>
            <endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
            <endpoint binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="MyService.basicHttpBinding" contract="IMyService" />
        </service>
    </services>
</system.serviceModel>

To troubleshoot turn on tracing both on the server and on the client, then inspect the log file. The error message points more to an object not being marked as [Serializable]. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms732023.aspx for guidance.

What's the config on the receiving end? I found the serializer blew up on receipt of lots of data.
