Ok,

Is this BHN wide, or just me or my area? It happens on every TV, so I know it isn't an internal wiring cable problem.

CBS (whatever local it is, I forget) looks really bad in analog, ghosting etc. The HD version doesn't come in for more than a second here or there, and the sound is non-existent.

It started about on March 31st. I know this because all my DVR shows from then that are recorded from CBS are unwatchable. Highly pixelated and no-sound or stutter sound. I know this is a signal issue not a DVR issue, because the same thing happens live CBS-HD too.

I am having Verizon FIOS-TV installed this saturday so I'm not bothering calling service. But, this is one of the MAIN reasons I don't like BHN! I can't imaging fiber optic to the house can be this messed up.

Why is it that BHN's signal so variable and unreliable?

Ok, done venting... 5 days till FB day (Freedom from BHN).

PS: Funny thing too. The day after the Verizon door-to-door sales guy came and we signed up, a BHN guy came to the door. Asked me if I was happy and staying. I said no we were going to switch and give FIOS a try. He asked if it was mostly price, or if they had something that I was looking forward too. I said yes, Good reliable service, 15mbps internet for less money. I was surprised he didn't even try to give me a discount or anything. MY wife thinks they messed up our service on purpose cause I told the guy we were switching.

CBS ghosts on all of my TV's real bad. You can see a 2-3" vertical bar most of the time in dark scenens. I had BHN out a while ago and they said my signal was low in the house, but fine outside. I didn't really mess with it too much as obviously they weren't going to mess with my wiring inside, and all of the other stations are perfectly fine.

My off-air HDTivo recording of "Lost" wednesday evening on CBS was full of dropouts and freezing...barely watchable, but several other CBS recordings made in the last 3 days are OK.

Floyd, Lost is on ABC not CBS.
