Anyone else that gets the Grand Rapids HD channels having problems with audio dropout? Just looking to see if it's the sat. feed or my system. My A/V receiver can sometimes have a pause as it syncs up to the new format if the audio format changes.

I don't have a wing dish, I use OTA. I can tell you that I was getting drops on NBC.

I don't know about the rest.

swissy, Thanks. I know when I had Charter I would get drop outs all the time from local channels. I figured it was just them learning how to do HD. My experience was that many times the audio format would change during the broadcast (like from HD broadcast 5.1 to a stereo 2.0 commercial) which would cause the drop out. MY A/V setup doesn't help much because it can take it a bit to decode and sync on the audio format change. I was just hoping that they had that part figured out already.

moman, I'll chack out the thread and maybe get some more solid info on what/when I am seeing it happen.
