Hi,<br /><br />I know this is best asked off UBI themselves but I want to know if it's possible first.<br /><br />The back of my IRD seems to have dish in and dish out connectors. Does this mean that I could essentially have more than 1 IRD running off my current dish possibly tuned to a diff channel?<br /><br />I know in FTA Terrestrial feeds this is indeed possible, but I'm not sure how it works in the SAT world.<br /><br />If it is possible, from UBI's perspective, do I have to sign up twice to get more SmartCards or is there another way?<br /><br />I love my latino package - and so do the rest of my family - but I'm more into Galavision whereas my significant other prefers Ritmoson. Can anyone suggest anything?

won`t work, it`s just a loop, to another receiver, for ubi you`ll need another ubi box. all this loop does is to loop the incoming signal from the lnb to another receiver. it dosen`t decript the signal. just because you can see it on your ubi box, dosn`t mean that the signal is decrypted to the other box.<br />it dosn`t work like that.<br />sorry.

if u want to view different channels at the same time u will need another UBI box and also pay another subscription this is the only other way to view 2 different channels at once

Rang UBI and as I feared, if I want to have 2 boxes running, then I need to pay 2 subscriptions. <br /><br />That hardly seems fair does it when you consider that:<br />1. You have to buy the box yourself outright.<br />2. You're already paying $60 for supposedly the Whole Package.<br /><br />I can understand that they have to provide a new access card and they need to charge a monthly fee for that ($25 like Phil said sounds fair) but a whole new subscription sounds unreasonable.<br /><br />Was there a provision to do this in Tarbs days?

Even in TARBS the 2nd IRD was charged the same amount as the 1st.

Yes. But what is stopping Mr. Habib havin 7 boxes under his name at a reduced price of $25 selling them off to his cousins for $30??<br />The best thing all legit! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/default/wink.gif" /> Spose UBI is keeping the air fair.

Yes Bedouin this is the reason I said that the second and third box will be used in a different address and they split the bill between the three of them.<br />So its simple if a UBI sub cost you $65 and a second box cost you $20 and you got 2 of them thats $65+$20+$20= $105 Divided by three people thats $35 per house hold. Now thats cheaper then paying $65 per household..<br />Heee UBI aren't that stupid you know.

i;am getting a second box installed from the same dish this friday:<br /><br />the cost is <br />$250 for the Set top box, Remote and Smart card<br />$49 Cables and installation of second box<br />$49 Activation Fee<br /><br />Total $348.00 One off payment<br /><br />then on going Monthly :<br /><br />$59.95 First Box + $59.95 For second Box<br /><br />= $119.90 Per Month

Puta uruguay! that's quite a monthly commitment on your part.<br /><br />Thanks to everyone for your replies.

g`day phil, your right, but can`t they do a limit to 2 per subscriver, were first box is $60 and second $25, 2 per subscriber won`t get out of hand, and ubi will get more subscribers, as for $25 i would get an extra box.<br />cheers.

That sounds like a good way of handling it. But as usual those that abuse the facilities end up stuffing it up for those that would otherwise use it legitimately.<br /><br />Liski, maybe you can suggest this to the powers that be.
