No even-transponder signals

Now I think it's an LNB problem, and temperature-sensitive. Everything was OK this morning, but at midday, with the temperature on the roof reaching very high levels, the even-numbered transponders on receiver two went out again. Evidently the second head isn't switching between odd and even transponders, and that failure might be coming about only when the head is hot. It's plenty hot up there today.
