2023 Sunspots: Shining a Light on Outages

By Published On: February 27th, 20231.3 min read

Live TV Customers: You may experience some TV disruptions between October 6th and October 12th due to a phenomenon called Solar Satellite Interference (aka Sunspots).

What are Sunspots?

These brief occurrences can happen when the sun is in a direct line behind the satellites that transmit your cable signal to your homes. When the sun is in alignment with a satellite, the solar radiation interferes with the satellite’s signal and can cause a brief disruption to your TV-watching experience.

When do they occur?

These Sunspots occur twice a year, once in the springtime and again in the fall, and are usually quite short, lasting around just a week.

What kind of disruption can I expect?

You may experience some pixelated frames, picture freezes, or sound distortion, but it will should only last between 4 and 15 minutes.

If your services remain affected for an extended period, please give our tech support team a call at (715) 458-5400 and we will do our best to get you back up and running as quickly as possible.
