[QUOTE="steeviebops, post: 1082439, member: 414368"] My only experience with Cryptovision was Cablelink's version but I remember that the decoder had no card. I think it was a Tandberg unit. They had an interesting cable system; all channels were fed in VHF and because Irish TVs had VHF tuners (we used PAL-I on VHF as well as UHF), you could connect the cable connection directly to the TV and tune it as if it were a terrestrial channel. It also meant you could watch one programme and record another. Only the premium channels were encrypted in Cryptovision, all other channels were fed down the cable FTA. MMDS was different though. All channels were encrypted in this case and the decoder was required at all times. [/QUOTE]
