SV8000HD Hiccups on DTV

[JohninSD]

Having a peculiar problem with my Sonicview 8000HD while watching OTA channels. It will occasionally "hiccup", losing picture and sound for a second or so, flashing the channel display along the bottom of the screen, then resuming normal operation. I'm running FW version 4.43 and have replaced the problematic capacitors in the PS. It doesn't do this when I'm watching FTA channels, only OTA. Anyone else seen this behavior?

thanks,
John

Are you getting a Strong Signal off your OTA Antenna ?

Signal's fine - 100% Q on most channels. No glitches when I use my converter boxes, just when I use the Sonicview.

Sv8000

To fix problems on my sv8000 used the clean bin and reloaded channel list I had saved. Dish net has figured out how to corrupt receiver if you visited their birds. I stay away from them now with the SV.
