Having fun with the cable provider. The tuning adapter has been blinking for several days. It is supposed to go to a solid green light after 15 to 20 minutes from a "cold boot" the locked in signal. So the tech has been great, replacing some cable signal issues and even crawling around in the attic.
All the cable connections are fine, but still no lock. So replace the tuning adapter. No green light at all. OK, replace the cable card. It is a PCMCIA card that plugs into the TIVO DVR. OK, no luck, oh wait, none of those on the truck. OK, another tech has one 30 minute drive away. So off goes the tech in search of a new cable card. Actually none of them are new, all just "refurbished" and about 50-50 odd that they work. Oh well. At least the call is not costing me any direct money, all paid for with my monthly bill.
