<p><a href="https://www.astound.com/support/tv/sun-outages/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Here</a> is the RCN (Astound Broadband) explanation. It includes the following:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><em>"The sun outage happens only during the day between <span class="shortcode-brand-content rcn none">10:30 AM and 5:30 PM ET</span> (no sun, no interference) and is brief, lasting for a few minutes—from 5 minutes, up to 15 minutes."</em></p>
