TV (direct) channel color variation

I recently purchased a 27" Sony KV-27FS120 and most of the time, the picture is great. Sometimes there is quite a bit of color intensity variation from one channel to the next.

  1. Is this something a TV should automatically correct for? if so, what is that function called?

  1. Is there an adjustment or setting that can engage or enhance this corrective funtion?

I am not a tech but I am also not adverse to making internal adjustments that don't require the exactness of a scope.

Thanks.

Auto Chroma Control ACC. It looks at the amplitude of color burst and adjusts it to nominal. If the burst / chroma is getting messed up somewhere, the ACC will 'fix' it but it won't be correct. Are you comparing off air TV stations or a cable feed? I'd expect less variation between TV stations than cable.

Dish Network. Seems worse on the regular VHF channels that the others. Is there anything that I can do to improve the situation??
