Hi All.
Just to clear things, I don't own any imported decoders, but sometimes I just get curious.
I know that Europe has switched off their analog Pay TV, some services which make use of The same kind of equipment M-net uses, and if some of these decoders offered for sale were in use till their Analog was switched off, chances are the box would be in a state of enabled. Should one import one of these into SA, would it work with M-Net, as the boxes are identical, providers may be different, but in theory if the box is still in a connected state, it would work in SA, and due to the box not being registered with Multichoice, the wouldn't be able to hit the kill switch as easily, or is there something I am missing.
Thanks
