I have a motorola dct 6412 III cable box that I got as a refurbished unit from my cable company...it died this past weekend and I wanted to get a new/covered under warranty unit and was looking at the Illico and was wondering if I could record 2 channels at the same time while watching a previously recorded show. It does say dual channel, but is this what that means??  Also can I use it with my current local cable company as there is no other cable company available in my area.  I know that some digital boxes require a subscription to certain cable companies (ie Rogers...which we don't have in my area).  I am VERY green when it comes to the technical side of such things...so if more info is needed please just let me know and I'll find out what I can!!  Thanks in advance for any help you have
