Error 503 from the HDHR means that all the tuners were busy.

But they were not actually busy. One of my HDHR shows:

HDHomeRun EXTEND
Tuner Status
Summary
Tuner 0
Tuner 1
Tuner Status
Tuner 0 Channel none
Tuner 1 Channel none

Could be a bad signal then. Can you watch any of those channels?

Yes, they all come through perfectly. It was some kind of glitch that I have never experienced before. I thought you might know about it.

Pretty weird. The only two reasons the HDHR would return 503 is either busy tuner or it couldn’t lock onto the signal. I wish they would distinguish between the two errors but they use the same error code.
