Semi-annual Sun Outages to Begin Next Week

September 27, 2018 By Dave Dicke •

Twice each year, the sun is positioned directly in line with the ground-based satellite dish antennas used to receive CATV programing. This positioning causes programming interruptions as the sun’s energy overpowers the signals transmitted by the satellites.

Fall sun outages will begin as early as Friday, October 5, and will last as long as through Sunday, October 14. The length of the signal interruptions will begin at a minute or less, and lengthen to as long as 15 minutes at the peak of the interruptions. The interruption periods will be between the hours of 11:30 AM and 5 PM. Times will vary with the satellite being affected.
During these interruptions, customers will see a blank colored or black screen on the affected channel(s) .
