The CAM is CI+ but does work in a CI receiver. As I understand it that happens because CI+ features have not been enabled.

Presumably it is possible that they could be enabled in the future and then the CAMs will stop working if your receiver is not CI+.View attachment 156643
Interesting! I did not know that such CI+ CAM modules can be "downgraded" just disabling advanced features. Now I understand, thanks.
This Kabelio package would be very interesting, but unfortunately it is too expensive.

I'm surprised Comag as a brand of receiver is rarely mentioned here...

Pity, it's a nice set of channels and I often use the non-British ones, e.g. following the French elections the other week on TF1. I have counted about six channels simultaneously showing the Euros in various languages, one of the Italian channels had the match with no commentary at all which is better to be honest!

will a Comag HD double tuner CI+ work with Kabelio card?
I haven't had any experience of Comag to be honest but if it's HD (most of the channels are HD) and CI+ compatible it should work. The CI+ will future-proof you because currently a CI receiver will work but that may change in the future.

Thank you! I bought this Comag because it has a double tuner,this allows me to get Astra 19 & hotbird3 on one connection (Monoblock).... and 28E on the other.Surprised these devices are so rare on the market. Called a double tuner with 2 sat IN,plus HD hard drive . Convenient when no access to replays.

I tend to use diseqc switches for multiple sats but I assume with two tuners and an HDD you can record one feed while watching another which is a useful feature.

I received my Kabelio "card" yesterday. In fact it isn't a card and CAM - it's just a CAM module presumably with all the card electronics integrated within.
