This is what I do. I set one tuner to 43 and the second to 44 and put the unit into stand by. You can hear the drive stop seeking and searching when you set the tuners to non-active channels. A large number of users also do this but they use channels 443 and 444 but on my unit these channels are sometime active.

I jump to channels I don't receive to stop buffering immediately, rather then 30 mins later or I can watch a channel live and have the other set to a dead channel. This way it is only buffering the live channel. It might be false economy but this is what i do...
