/k/

I wanted to get a technician to install an old antenna & decoder that I had kept given to me by my friend as a 2nd decoder in my bedroom.
The plan was so that I can just transfer the smartcard from my living room decoder to my bedroom decoder.

However, the technician say now cannot do this anymore because Astro now has upgraded the decoder to check the smartcard serial number to match the decoder serial number that was initially purchased.

Last time i heard can, but this is news to me...

Anybody can confirm this?

I have standard definition astro decoder, one old Phillips type, and new phillips type.
