Well you need a paired card for a v+ hd box, the only way to to tell is to try? are you serious? I'm glad im not that much a noob to take your rubbish advice, if i plug the box in to vm line they will auto send a false bk to the card then the box is useless, do not post if you dont know as you could of cost someone a lot of money, time and effort with that post, luckily i already knew.

But i've got no worries as i know my friend reddiesel will be about soon.(someone who actually knows his stuff).

Thanks for the vote of confidence , easiest way is check the ird on the card matches the nagra serial ird in the eng menu, convert to hex, What i do is using mike data script click on run script and you get two windows type boxes come up you click on the first one and the second one has the ird on it if it is 00000000 then it has a false bk if it is 3E etc then bk should be good, you dont have to actually run the script and unloop, although ive found they seem to be mostly bod which dont take long.
So if your buying one i would suggest taking a lappy and unlooper with you, if they wont let you check first or give you some sort of guarantee that you can get your money back dont buy it.
