Goodmans GDB2 box post-DSO

I have a very reliable Goodmans GDB2 box which worked fine pre-DSO and
which claims to be 8K compliant but when Caldbeck switched in July, the
new 8K BBC channels were undecodable first of all and then when the rest
switched later in the month, all of those became undecodable too.

The GDB2 doesn't appear on the list of boxes which won't work on 8K.

Anyone else using a GDB2 (yes, I know!) on 8K? I'm wondering if it might
be caused by Caldbeck having a negative frequency offset on all muxes as
some of the PVRs suffered in that respect but there was a software update
for those which fixed it.

Have you tried contacting Goodmans, are they still operating a UK centre. I
always found them pretty knowledgable.
