[QUOTE="PaulR, post: 156533, member: 176256"] Yes, exactly. There is a moment or two while the box reinitialises itself to the different card but that's all. It's probably not wise to do this too often as the card contacts in the box aren't designed for frequent insertion and removal though. New ones can be obtained from $ly if you have a UK address you can use. S/H ones are available from ebay but be careful, it's possible to buy ones which are stolen and then will be completely deactivated before too long. Only a brand new card, possibly,I haven't bought one so don't know presisely whether they are preactivated or not. Once they are activated they might need refreshing if they are left out of the box for a month or more - leave the card in the box overnight to make sure it gets its "keep alive" signals. [/QUOTE]
