    Thanks.  Just called Cox and they are sending new tuning adapters.  I will do a self install though they said they would send out a tech to install them for free.  Cox indicated they want the old tuning adapters back to remove them from my account to avoid additional charges.

    Will need to reboot TiVo once new tuning adapter is installed and may or may not need to resync via tech support according to my Cox rep.
