[QUOTE="Hixxy1, post: 818981, member: 389960"] Those HD boxes can be really dodgy at times. It seems as if your reception fault is mildly related to the psu. Perhaps the tuner is on it's way out and the reconditioned psu is giving it the extra umth/smoothing that it needs to clear the digital threshold. If the caps have gone inside the tuner it may be attenuating the signal or not supplying enough voltage to the lnb. Have you tried to rec. any of the missing channels whilst watching another good one at the same time? I haven't got a circuit diagram but it sounds suspect. Perhaps if you test the box on a bigger dish it'll push more signal into the tuner and the channels will clear. Also both channels (Watch HD & AP HD) are both on the same transponder. Have you got a cordless phone base unit near/wifi router nearby? They used to have a tendency to interfere with my system. [/QUOTE]
