Hi, PLEASE can anyone help this may sound a very silly question but I have to ask I have just bought this euro-vox 2008 and I am about to install it do I take out my ntl box completely and do I put the card from it into my euro-vox, please put my mind at rest.

Hi there armbuzzer.
Firstly leave your old NTHell box and card in place and get a splitter on the cable.
Connect your eurovox to the splitter and connect to your tv.

No you do not use you old card in the eurovox...u do not need any cards in the vox box. Simply follow the tuts in this forum to set up and powerscan.
Once the scan is complete you will have all the encrypted and free to air without using the card.

While I was doing my research on here before buying a Eurovox Max V, I understood that I would only need a splitter if I was using it in conjunction with broadband. Since my broadband is upstairs and I only intend using the Eurovox downstairs I just disconnected my old analogue N*L box believing I didn't need to keep it connected via a splitter. Can anyone confirm if I need to keep the analogue box connected along with the Eurovox? I still have another analogue box plugged in upstairs if this makes any difference.

no just replace the analog box with eurovox simple as that because the feed is digital it's only the box which is analog

So presumably the analogue box doesn't send a signal back to VM in the same way that a digital one would?
