I have some questions regarding Satellite T.V. and VideoCipher II.
1) How come I never see this subject on the net ?
2) Did any of you read the articles in Electronic Eng Times on DecTec
and the new SUN decoder (Oct. 22, 1990)? Does anyone have the address
of DecTec or info on ordering the SUN decoder ?
3) Whats the latest scoop on VCII decoder hacking, anyone got the 032
type working ?
4) Can anyone explain the following : Wizard Chips, Seed Key archival,
Auto Updating units, Musketeering, what services the 900 number provides
and how is a unit modified for the 900 number codes ?
5) Which of the VCII's have been cracked (ie: 019, 029, 032) and which
ones have not.
6) What are the best sources for info on this subject, how about Telecode ?
7) How about the Oak system ?
Any information would be great! Now don't worry, I would never do any
thing thats illegal. I just want to further my knowlege on how these
things work. Thanks, Norm.
