No, it is incorrect. A non-activated Voom box will show "unauthorized" when power on the receiver, and go no further. Once subscribed, it becomes "activated", you can go into menu adjustment. When subscription ended, Voom sends a signal to stop the receiver, the receiver becomes "idle", you'll have "please call Voom for ..." message.
