Go to the Tuner setup screen and select cable instead of air. Then put the TV on Channel 3 and connect the cable box to the antenna connector on the TV.
look first in the captions area for TEXT---if its on there will be a blank box in the middle of the screen but usually it will be black--look to see if TEXT is engaged.

This is a text box. To get rid of it you press the cc button. You may have to press the cc button more than once or twice in a row. There is no harm in pressing the cc button. In fact turn to that channel and press it a few times in a row while looking at your screen. You will notice that you will see cc:1/2 cc:2/2 cc:text3/4 cc:text4/4 and cc:off
or something like that. When it says cc:off you will no longer see the block box on this channel or any other channel. You do not have to do this for every channel once it is done.
However the text box might be set on the caption setting in the cable box or satellite tv box. If so the procedure is different.
This is definitely not a Sharp Aquos feature. Any show related functions come from Dish Network. It might be a channel specific function which the Dish Network support staff does not know how to deal with.
The black box is a text box for closed captioning. Some stations send the signal which turns on the box while not actually broadcasting any text. Go into your setup menu and turn off closed captioning, or at least change it to a different mode. The easiest option is to restore factory presets.
This is a problem with closed-captioning. What you are seeing is a closed captioning box with no captioning in it. Usually this is being accidentally transmitted by the cable company "head end". Just make sure your closed captioning function is completely turned off. if you are seeing it randomly, it may well be coming from your cable company. Is it just on certain channels?
I have the same problem with my 42 in. The line started to show up randomly about 1 month after i got my tv. The line isn't a line of dead pixels since when i change the aspect ratio or the tv the line moves up or down. I called sharp about the problem and they said it had something to do with my computer but i don't think that can explain why the problem shows up on all my tv inputs.
