I've had my HR20-700 since January and installed it with the B Band converters. About 2 weeks ago my tuner number 2 stopped working which left me with one tuner. After checking all the wires twice I could not find the problem. D* told me that it must be my unit and sent me a new one. When starting to install the new HR20 I noticed that one of the B band converters was very warm as the other one was at room temp. I took off the warm B-Band converter and replaced it with a new one and the problem was fixed.
Just a hint for others that may run into this, B Band converters should not be hot.

i was actually messing with my BBC's this morning and the one in tuner 1 was really hot, and was pixelating like mad, i switched it out and still am getting some pixelation and breakup but i'll have to make sure it isn't getting hot, that is a weird problem,

Nothing will delay new HD channels like D* BBC burning peoples houses down!
