We would be happy to assist you! Does the receiver turn off completely when you change a channel? Is your receiver plugged into a surge protector or directly into the wall? If it is plugged into a surge protector please try plugging it directly into the wall. If this does not resolve the issue send us an email at [email protected] so that we can further assist you.
