Sound dropping out on Sky Sports 1 HD
Any one else notice the sound dropping out for a milli-second every now and then on Sky Sports 1 HD during the Crystal Palace v Spurs game?

Re: Sound dropping out on Sky Sports 1 HD
So it's not me then it's probably Sky... Didn't we have the same problem at the start of last season as well?
Added: seems ok now

Re: Sound dropping out on Sky Sports 1 HD
Are you sure it was dropping out, or was it just when they cut to the microphones near the away end?

Re: Sound dropping out on Sky Sports 1 HD
I'm getting two to three-second sound dropouts on my radio channels. Particularly on Talk Sport but I also get it on 5 Live. It's been happening for some time now.

Anyone else?

Magic Radio did that sometimes with me - but not for three seconds I need to go to TalkSport or BBC Radio Scotland then go back again to fix it.

Re: Sound dropping out on Sky Sports 1 HD
Radio dropouts are getting worse. Trying to listen to Talk Sport this morning and they're longer (about five seconds) and more frequent.

Very irritating.

How often do they happen? I listened for 5 minutes this morning and didn't hear any dropouts.

Today it's been every 3-4 minutes.

I wonder if it's a localised thing - I live in Bristol.

You should report it to VM. It is likely to be a signal fault that only affects you.
