Hello,
I am wondering if an other 3803 owners have experienced this anomaly. I have finally resolved all my crappy reception issues with my cable (long story) but now when I run the digital cable box through the 3803 and during channel surfing either direction intermittently I can hear the rcvr clicking-sounds like a relay and a purple or green line flickers on top of the RPTV during the channel switch and before the cable box locks onto the new channel. Example if I channel up from say ch 7 to 8 I hear the clicking and then the flicker then the ch tunes in. It should be noted that the channel surfing isn’t smooth with our cable provider there is a slight delay between channel on all sets in the house. I hooked up my cable into my JVC D-VHS dishnetwork box (analog) and I the flicker the problem is not there however I did hear the click once. I should mention that the up conversion doesn’t show any of the other problems discussed here actually it works quite well. But this clicking flicker thing is unacceptable. What I have concluded is that the signal from the cable box may dip during the channel change and the rcvr is re syncing???
Setup
Motorola Cable box composite -> 3803-> component out -> Toshiba 57hdx82
JVC s-video ->3803-> component out -> Toshiba 57hdx82
Curious if anyone else has seen this and potential fixes
Thanks Jeff
