Damn what a problem.  When I watch Spike TV using DISH my sound on my TV will go all static every few minutes.  

It stays this way on all channels, cable TV or DISH.  I have to unplug the damned TV to reset the sound.  Then a few minutes later it starts all over.  This happens only on Spike.  

Any ideas?????

What kind of TV do you have. I know there has been problems with RCA and some others lately with the lower regular channels with cable lately Nation wide. Some of the networks have switched there transmitting softwear and it has been overloading the cable boxes causing them to loose sound. I know you don't have cable but who knows maybe somehow it could be connected.


oh yeah like Pete said call teck support

Is it still doing it?
Most likely a problem on their end otherwise you would have bad audio on every channel.

I'm on Cablesouth and channel 78 (last one) periodically loses about half the volume. I can either "Alternate Channel" twice or jack it up 10 clicks. Then when it reverts to normal it blows the wax out of my ears.

Normally if its a single station and your saying its on cable AND Dish, then its an issue with Spike. It happens from time to time. Call your tech support and they will get the info to there network people who handle the incoming signals and look at it.
