Openbox S10 Tuner problem

[waqypaqy]

Hey guys. Have had an Openbox s10 running perfectly well for the past 8 weeks until now..

LAst week the box slowly started losing signal until now it doesnt show any channels. I've checked the transponder list in Settings and it seems to be that any Transponder with Vertical polarisation(if that's the right word for it) doesn't pick up any signal. I've tried the box at two other houses but I have the same problem so it can't be the wiring at fault.

Was wondering if anyone had the same problem before or if anyone could give me a solution? I've tried looking for a tuner to purchase so I can replace the faulty one but I've had no luck in my quest

if you tried in a few locations and get same result, looks like tuner, time to buy another box, not sure if its wise getting another of these, came across a few people who have one, and tuner shot in less than a year. in the end of the day, you pay for what you get, sometimes worth spending a little extra.

Specs on s10 suggest that tuner can be replaced.

Would be easier/cheaper to replace tuner?
