    I have a satellite dish tuning into 19.2, perfect reception. The only issue is that when I change between some channels a loud tone burst is audible.

    Any ideas? I'm thinking perhaps the tv or the hdmi cable ?
    Thanks in advance

    It might be to alert blind people to channels with Audio Description, if than exists on 19 East. This is a link about the system for UK channels.

    http://www.mediaaccess.org.au/television/audio-description-on-tv/audio-description-on-tv-in-the-uk

    Televisions can be programmed so that you hear a short beep whenever you tune to a program with audio description, switch audio description on or off temporarily and highlight audio described programs in the onscreen television guide.

    There should be a menu to turn it off.
