So, you could try that.
According to the board markings he mentioned, this is the 2002 TechnoTrend card. On this card, OP2 _can_ be wired to the LLC (Line Length Compensation) pin of the LNBP16 (the LNB power supply chip), but at least on my card, the component which makes the connection between the OP2 and LLC pins was not equipped. If it is equipped, OP2=1 means LLC is on, i.e. the LNB voltage is increased by 1V (=14/19V instead of 13/18V). If the line between the card and the LNB is short, the LNB may get a slight overvoltage, maybe that is indeed the problem...
