i thought this message could only appear on eurovox type boxes(Boxes you have to scan for channels). I never knew it could appear on VM boxes

Yes your right, its not on mine at the moment, probably different area.
Is your talkback cut geoforcefx ?
I would guess its same as whats on eurovox starview etc.
edit i didnt read post properly your t/b is cut, dont think its possible for them to know, it may be the cam id you used or something similar that makes it show, we will find out tomorrow if we are bombarded with posts.
