    they see 2 boxes m8, and i believe the fact that 1 is responding and the other isnt will maybe draw attention to you quicker than if you only had 1 subbed box.

    people are saying don't use a subscribed box.... then how do u use a modded box without removing the one thats talking back?

    plus, what about the people that have been using old modded analogue boxes through the same connection. ie took the original subbed digi box off completely. It wouldn't have been talking back then either would it?

    they put a two way spliter on the cable coming in and then have both running at the same time so the box is conected for the talkback,easy enough done m8,and not everyone has a subed box conected,ya can use a bb feed

    @ bigster ..

    Just wondering .. if people use the bb feed .. to view, does the talkback still send a signal ? and is the signal .. accepted ?.

    if it dosent maybe its one way round .. for subbed users to edit rom cards and watch in saftey and not having the hassel of cuting tracks and the like..

    hmm .. then again if they subbed .. all the cables go into one box on ya wall outside .. so i guees it would become clear to them at the ntl end.. oh well an idea ..

    one of my mates had digi/telco installed just the basic packs and took out the digi and just used a chipped analogue box and a tech turned up at his house to check his digi as it wasnt talking back, he blagged it by saying he had been decorating and thats why it was disconnected. Always best to get the subbed box in line somewhere if you can

    all goes threw the same line as you guesed m8,will all get back to them in the end unless you take the talkback of,then they will want to know why it aint talking back and so on and so on,its the same old argument everyother week about subbed boxes on here and other forums,my opinion is get a second box,less hastle,less chance in getting caught = less chance of buggering it for others,its like the other faq about programers elvis wont do get a smartmouse programer, if only ppl used the search facility, this isent a dig at you Rabid^Gerbil m8 sorry if it comes across that way. just voicing me opinion,hope i helped
