Yep, our Jerrold box used to run as hot as hades. Then one day the display went out and the burning smells started.

My TV had an all band tuner and there were quite a few channels transmitted without any encryption*, our box had a pass through mounted on the back for the FM tuner and I had a splitter this connected to the TV antenna input
