descrambler.  A Testchip or "Multi-Mode" TestBoard is an Add-on type of
device which when used with a addressable cable box  restores the video and
audio of scrambled channels, making them clear and viewable. This will let
you view channels like Pay-Per-View, HBO, Showtime, Spice, and many others.
 All chips are sold with instructions on how to install the chip and also a

install a chip into your box you have the know how to install these chips
into other boxes.  We can sell you 5 chip for $35, so for the lot of 5

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do I get more information on a Testchip or get in contact with you?
	You Can take a look at our Webb page @: 
http://www.genesisnetwork.net/users/nathanb/index.html   or call us at
1-88-TEST-CHIP or (1-888-378-2447).

2. Are Testchip or "Multi-Mode" TestBoard Descramblers legal to own and use
?
	YES, Absolutely! Descramblers are Now legal to own and use. If your cable
TV company can rent a cable box to you, then you can own a box yourself.
Many years ago, AT&T had the monopoly of renting telephones to consumers.
Then, the FCC ruled that it was legal for consumers to own their own
telephones. Now the law has been changed for cable TV equipment too! It is
now legal for you to purchase and own your own cable equipment to take
advantage of all the latest features available as well as saving Big money
on all the equipment rental fees! Please note: it is your responsibility to
let the cable TV company know that you have your own equipment, since they
can't detect it. It is also your responsibility to pay for any services you
receive.

3. What is an Addressable Cable Box ? 
	Addressable means that the cable box can be controlled remotely by the
cable company from their office. By sending signals through the cable
system, the cable company can "talk" to a specific addressable cable box on
the system to control which channels are scrambled and where the channels
are located. This type of system lets the cable company instantly add or
delete descrambling on the channels that come into your cable box as well
as the location of those channels. The Testchip or "Multi-Mode" TestBoard
descramblers do not allow the cable company to have control over the cable
box. Addressable and Non-addressable units both have the ability to receive
all Premium channels.

4. Are all Testchips and TestBoards the same ?
	No, There are significant differences in technology, features,
reliability, quality, warranty and price. Some companies sell obsolete
equipment with little or no warranty. Other companies charge a small
fortune for a low tech unit. We offer the spectrum from yesterday's
technology to tomorrow's State-of-the-Art TestChips and Test Multi-Mode
Boards loaded with all the features you want. For a unit loaded with all
the Latest On-Screen display and other features use our High quality black
test boards.

5. How do I know which Testchip or "Multi-Mode" TestBoard I need ?
	1. First, you must get the Brand Name and Model Number of the cable box
unit that is supplied by your cable company that is capable of receiving
Premium channels. The Model number is usually printed on a sticker on the
bottom of most boxes. Model numbers are usually 6-10 digits long, for
example: DPV7212, ST1600, SA8590-757, 5507VIP etc... 2. If you don't
currently have a cable box that can receive premium service, you may be
able to get the model number from a friend or neighbor nearby that has a
box that is capable of receiving premium service.

6. What if there isn't a Testchip or "Multi-Mode" TestBoard Descrambler for
my cable company box ?
