    Not a chance sorry the tuners are part of the board as they work in conjunction with the processor.

            Just out of interest does the faulty tuner work at all even intermittently?

                i would have thought knowing if box was original and less than 2 years there may have been a warranty,as with the clone you get two finger support.

                      Has the board ever been out and maybe not secured? ie screwed down. Maybe you could get someone to take the board out and check the joints with a magnifying lamp.

                              Can you explain a bit more? What exactly did you do?
                              My A tuner works 100% with both dish feeds, but for no reason the B tuner does not. I have reversed the feeds and done a lot of testing and have to conclude that tuner B is defunct. I have not had the covers off or anything like that.
