Bad sound quality on WSBK

This is something I've noticed for the past couple of days. I'm on Verizon FiOS, and I hear this static, which is mostly noticeable on HD channels. But it's on both the HD and the SD feed. I checked my OTA TV, and it's happening on that as well. Is anyone else noticing this?
 
Yep I noticed it the past couple of nights. During the Bonus round on Wheel of Fortune you can really hear the static when there are long pauses in conversation. I'm watching the Over the air signal on an HDTV.
 
Did you, I dont know, maybe, call them and complain? Or did you post it on an internet forum where no one from WSBK or FiOS reads it?
 
I posted it on a FiOS forum, but didn't get any responses. But now it's obvious that it isn't FiOS that's the problem, it's the station itself.

Work it from both ends.. call FiOS customer service and dont accept "its coming to us that way", thats tattooed on the backs of their hands. They will work backward to the station (trust me I know how FiOS gets), and call WSBK, Chief Engineer's office, and they will work it forward (trust me I know how a station gets when "its leaving here fine").
 
I noticed that last night. I watched the end of Law and Order, and the audio quality was terrible! You could hear the static clearly over the credits. However, right when WBZ News came on, it cleared up.
 
Something ain't right. Did anyone tell them yet? I assume they already know, but it wouldn't hurt to send a few messages their way.
