Twice a year, you may experience some degree of television interference due to “sun outages.” Such outages are caused by a phenomenon called a “solar satellite interference.” These brief outages occur when the sun passes directly behind satellites transmitting cable signals. When the sun is aligned with a satellite, solar radiation, an energy the sun is emitting, interferes with the satellite’s signal and thus causes a brief signal outage.
Sun outages occur every year, in Fall and Spring, and last approximately about a week each time. This Fall, sun outages are expected during the period of October 4 through October 12, 2016.
During the sun outage, you may experience a pixelated picture, picture freezes, or audio distortions for a brief period of time.
The sun outage happens only during the day between 11am and 5:30pm (no sun, no interference) and is brief, lasting for a few minutes—from 5 minutes, up to 45 minutes.
RCN apologizes for any inconvenience a sun outage may cause. However, solar satellite interference is out of our control. Please be patient and everything will get back to normal. If you have question about sun outages, please contact RCN.
(From our friends at RCN.)

Rendering courtesy of Future-Firm.org Current view of 4833 N. Broadway (courtesy Google Maps) Some time ago we got an unsourced tip about a food court hall opening in Uptown [thanks for the correction Reader DT], but we heard nothing further. We were quite surprised to see that the rumor is in fact true, and it appears a cool new food hall is about to get started at 4833 N. Broadway (next to Silver Seafood, in the building that housed Sunlight Nail Supply for quite some time).On Thursday, Mayor Johnson announced that $1.98 million in Community Development Grant money was awarded to [...]
It's been a long time since we broke the news that the owners of the famous Double Door were seeking to reopen at 1050 W. Wilson. There have been significant steps forward along the way, the most significant of which was the City approving plans for restoration of the historic structure and giving the green light to build in January of this year.Financing such a large build has been a bit tricky, but this evening the Double Door was brought much closer to reality, as it was announced that the City has contributed $5,000,000 to the project as part of the Community Development [...]
