Of course I will , but if you want to stay watching the FTA stuff all well and good, and I can't denigh that there will always be a chance that the receiver could end up fried, it has happened on a few occasions but not many.

I have the same make of receiver as you, and you are really missing out big time on all the channels you could be receiving by not patching, but you can still get the same channels by going the "cams & cards" route and then you will not run that risk.
