Bolt with no subscription and minis

I have a bolt that is out of service and we are thinking of cutting cable and trying to do OTA. Will the Minis still get the feed from the bolt via MOCA if there is no subscription? The minis are currently telling me there is a connection issue with the internet. I am getting the no subscription warning on the bolt, however the live cable still works. Or will I need a subscription to get the MOCA to work again?
