Dead tuner on Peak Dual DVB-T

#1

With utterly brilliant timing, as my local transmitter finally, finally went all digital yesterday, I seem to have had a hardware failure on my Peak Dual DVB-T tuner. Tuner 1 is not receiving any signal at all, whilst Tuner 2 is working fine and dandy. I can reproduce this with ease by fiddling with the tuner priorities.

But I am a bit confused. I don't see two bits of silicon on the card, it only shows up once in Device Manager and there is only one aerial socket, so can I really have a failure only on Tuner 1? Am I being dumb?

I've not done anything, but tuner 1 seems to have come back to life now.
