Hey something I can answer

Yes you can do basic serial logging of your own card via an external "season interface" or internal interface (eg; the KU one wire mod)

Logging of the data stream is theoretically possible with a major mod, the trouble has alway been speed of the connection to the PC. Most "Live" logging software that I know of uses SCSI.
Basically the "P" box would require the fitting of a custom PCB with a SCSI chip (As in nokia box) connected to the data bus from the DE-MUX chip and the CAM.

Hi Again Omega
I would recomend setting up the basic logging on the P box.
Even if its only to monitor EMMs to your own card. The one wire MOD works well, personaly I use a built in season board to leave the exisiting
RS232 port free(In the hope that one day we may find a way to trick the software upgrade that an old version is newer that the existing one)

The Season 2 omega99 is fairly easy to use and understand and it gives you the starting point of logging whereby you follow your own sub card details and see what's happening with that and then you can move onto the skymedia...plus the season is a cheap way to start off also..
