I just completed the purchase of Shawn's 4xSPDI/F transceiver board. It has not arrived yet, but I am expecting it any day now. I also purchased the Octava box.

I will do the modification and will report on it. From the pictures that I have seen of this mod, it seems that it is not all that difficult.

One thing, I would like to note, - we are dealing with 75-ohm interface here, so it makes sence to use 75-Ohm connectors and not to re-use existing RCA connectors on the Octava box, as they are not 75-Ohm rated. Also, 75-Ohm RCA connectors do not really exist, inspite of what some companies claim.

So it leaves us with BNC. It seems to me that the 75-Ohm BNC connectors can be installed in the available space on the Octava box, leaving the 7.1 analog input and output in place in the stock form. Thoughts anyone?
