• Stuttering TV

    From Brian Gaff@21:1/5 to All on Fri Aug 26 10:30:41 2022
    I notice sometimes for no reason that dialogue on some programmes do momentarily stutter. Cannot see the picture, so do not know what effects are going on there. Would in the opinion of the folk here be more likely to be interference or signal level related. To me it seems channel related, so
    that would seem to rule out either due to other services being on the ame transmitted signal. It has got worse recently on W for example, together
    with the odd loud click.

    Might the people speaking be using radio microphones, which might
    account for it? Presumably you have no way of knowing.

    No, but I've never noticed that effect on microphones. Normally the give
    away on modern radio mikes not used for singers is a very gritty sound due
    to the digital signal processing.

    After a nearby storm the day before yesterday, I think the answer is some
    kind of impulse disruption somewhere between the program source and the transmitter, since it only affects the one channel.
    Living in or around London,I would expect this to be more of a problem
    simply due to more feeds coming from there, before they get combined.
    The effect seems to have gone away again now, so hopefully its been fixed.
