The tuner volume suddenly went mute, then after a minute it
resumed. This seems to happen occasionally.
Under the TUNER SETUP menu, is the AUTO FREQUENCY option
active? You may be experiencing broadcast station dropouts. When
the broadcast signal drops out, the volume is muted and AUTO
FREQUENCY activates, scanning for alternate broadcast frequencies
and then verifying that the station ID is an exact match. If the
station ID matches and the alternate frequency is a stronger signal,
then the tuner switches to the alternate frequency and turns off the
volume mute. Otherwise, auto frequency scans for another
alternate frequency and repeats the procedure. If there are a lot of
alternate broadcast frequencies, this process can take a noticeable
amount of time. To stop this behavior, simply turn off the Auto
frequency option.
