Re: Sound Crackly?
That's a good point, actually.

Reaps, does your TV have a function whereby you can change between mono and stereo sound? If it does, can you tell us whether the crackling happens on both of these, or just the stereo?

NICAM audio signals are carried separately from mono signals. So if it happens on both signals, it's likely to be a reception issue. If it's only on the stereo signal, it's probably a fault in the NICAM encoder at the headend.
