does the coax mod disable the 7pin i/o? (never worked with 7 pins before)
well, on a stock there are 2 7pin i/o's - one male, and one female. If your coax mod is like mine, then it physically replaced one of the 7pin i/o's. The other one is still there... I've never used 7 Pin either, but I am quite sure it does not effect the other 7 pin i/o. At least I hope it doesn't!
I'll let you know for sure when I get the cable from Fozzy.
Edit: OK, I think Fozzy told me that his was a coax mod SBM-1, and he said he's used 2 different 7-Pin diy cable to record for 9 hours one time flawlessly, and 3 hours flawlessly another time, so I'd assume that it does not disable the other 7-Pin I/O. Hopefully he'll chime in and let us know for sure.
It was something I hadn't considered, and now you got me all worried that it isn't going to work! I think it's cool tho.
