Poor Signal or Poor Cable Company?

I've been reseaching for about a week on why I am receiving most of my Suddenlink (San Angelo, Texas) analog cable channels in mono sound. This includes WFAA (ABC), KERA (PBS), KWSA (CW). Now, I can understand channels like shopping networks and others of that sort, but Sci-Fi in mono is like have a root canal performed.

I've even gone as far as to e-mail their tech support and much to my suprise did not receive a reply.

Now if I were a betting man, I would bet it's not a poor signal that I'm not receiving these channels in stereo...but I have been known to be wrong before...can some one prove me otherwise?

Thanks,
Chris

OH...don't get me wrong...I'm running digital cable w/DD 5.1...it's just analog channels that I was discussing since the broadcast channels apparently haven't reached a deal to trasmit their HD signal over cable yet.

I'm running my audio from a Motorola DCT6200 via optical audio to a Panasonic SA-XR10 receiver.
