Just go into the menu, "select input", or "select tuner" (I forget the 
exact wording) and pick another tuner.  It's not perfect and requires 
you to know which tuner you are currently (recording) on to switch away 
from and I guess which tuner has the channel you want if different 
tuners have different channels for you.  But it works.
