Georges,
Thanks for the reply!

I believe they are random. They are normally quite far between,
but are very loud and annoying. It's more like a "pop" though,
but with a very short crackle sound after the pop. At first it

In another post you say it's fed from a digital satellite receiver. A
dropout or error burst in the satellite signal will make exactly that
kind of noise. Could be the antenna/dish has moved or the cable is
getting water in it or something.

I'd try feeding it from another source for a few hours (days?) and see
if that fixes it.
