If it's a different device then post the number and I'll see what I can find out.

LOL, I'm not too keen on pulling the cover off. I can't get to it now, anyway. [The box is behind my wardrobe. I emptied it to get behind it & see the box, but I put everything back after 1st noticing the 2nd port was "FM", so it's completely stuffed again (clothes, and, erm...boxes & boxes of comics, lol)]

I may just assume it's a VQ330 as you say (it makes sense...FM labelled output is only FM etc), unless I can be bothered to get back there again.

OK...

If I split the cable instead - using a decent splitter & proper pre-made cables from Maplins - am I right in that the only way it would screw-up my BB would be if my connection doesn't have the power to be split etc, if it's already borderline or whatever. And if it did affect it, all I'd have to do to sort it out would be to simply go back to as it is now - cable straight to the SACM (& leave it like that!). So if I get the right bits, & maybe check my signals with rdhw's DOCSDIAG before & after, it should be easy enough...?
