Stations Pixelating

Several of my stations are startingto pixelating.  So much so that I can't watch them anymore.  This started several months ago and has just gotten worse over time.  My downstairs HD receiver works fine but the upstairs HD receiver has this problem.  As a note, the upstairs receiver is older and stays quite hot while the downstairs receiver is newer and stays just slightly warm.  Can you replace the old receiver with a newer one that stays cool?
