Same deal here in SW FLA via ComCrap: we get dropouts, black screen, "pops and snaps" when it lurches back on, sometimes, etc. The only issue we seldom have is lip sync.

This drop out crap is only on the HD digital feed stations; the non-HD stations never exhibit this, nor does my 2nd TV which is non-digi and just the basic pkg.

I've talked to ComCrap a few times and they have been out a couple times to fix my phone deal with them. The "techs" just sorta shrug on the HD dropout deal and tell me it's normal.

I think it might be "hard" on the set too, with the continual "off and on" effect.

It's 2006 and the CableCo produces signals like it's 1992.

Thanks for letting me rant,
