    I was wondering if it is possible to take my UPC box&card and hook it up in another house? Will it display all the channels I currently have?

    Basically I have to "house-sit" for a week. The friend I will be house sitting for has a basic UPC Digital package. I however have the full package.

    So if I took my stuff and hooked it up in his house, would it work fully?

    Thanks :)

    Probably will work, and knowing UPC you would be probably be liable to be hung drawn & quartered for doing so. I think they are trying to bring back the death penatly for using a univeral remote on their boxes ;)

    Does work. I've did it only last week. As long as you have the same box and card then just plug in the cable and go.
