I've just bought a Jerrold Impulse 550digibox off ebay for £25.
The guy who i bought it of says it's all chipped up and can get loads of stations on the N*L networks. Will these old box's still work with everything being digital ? I have a Eurovox Max V 2008 for the tv downstairs so i know that you can get free tv ![]() I bought this for the kids room to watch basic channels as my N*L subscripton ended today and the digibox's have been returned

You can still get some of the channels on them, especially the sky sports I, II, III plus a couple of the movie channels but most have moved digital. Not even sure cartoon network is still there or not.

I'll have to plug my old S.A box in and see what you can still get on it.
It was well cool since it never went down once in it's lifetime so was amazing value for money. |

right i have this now at home. The box is infact chipped as i've opend it up and it's solded in there.
The box however dosn't decode the stations that are in there maybe wrong area as it could have been used on Tele*est and i'm in ex-N*L area.Any idea's if there is a work around other than doing the chipping again ? |
