Why would tuner one be showing a decent signal & tuner 2 have little to no signal? There's only one input & it is not run with swm signal, it's a seperate cable. Am I missing something?
The HR20 physically has two tuners inside, with a cable hooked to each running off the one input. It is a soldered cable that looks similiar to an RCA jack. Anyhow, only reason I can think of for that to happed is the cable has come loose or the second tuner is failing.
I think you are ok to take the cover off and check the cable. The HR20 is no longer being taken back by Directv when disconnected.

Because of the way the two tuners are connected, the performance will not be identical. If the signals are already low, the second tuner can be lower. Also the performance when there is multipath can be different. What signal strength are you seeing on a typical station?

There's 3 (& a sub for each) main channels that I have the antenna aimed for & usually had decent signals in the 80s +/- on both tuners. The last few days, I noticed I'd be searching for signal on the 2 out of the 3 one time & have a fine picture the next. So when I check the signal heres what I see: Channel 3.1 & 3.2 = 78 tuner one, 0 tuner two, Channel 8.1 & 8.2 = 69 tuner one, 0 tuner 2, Channel 17.1 & 17.2 = 67 tuner one, 43 tuner two. Seems strange fo me. In the past I had always noticed that the tuners were never exactly even, but were quite similar...
