Thanks Mike,   I now have more information.

After removing mythtv and reinstalling, the HDHomeRun & LiveTV was working
again.  I did nothing else - then i rebooted.  After the restart, the
LiveTV stopped working again...

Closer inspection of the backend log shows the following on startup just
moments after the reboot:

Nov  1 17:56:58 mythbox mythbackend: mythbackend[1045]: N CoreContext
main_helpers.cpp:597 (run_backend) MythBackend: Starting up as the master

I wonder if the backend might be staring up before the machine has
established network connectivity?  Is there a standard way to delay startup
of the backend?

I'm unable to investigate further tonight.  Will try again later.

Cheers
