I have the same feelings about DirectTV as everyone else..I LOVE IT!
Dumped the cable co (Charter) after an electrician friend said the NEWLY INSTALLED wiring and splitters CHARTER installed were done wrong and would have eventually caused a fire. Had it...along with other probs dumped them.
I've got Direct Tv mounted on the roof. Very strong signals and very clear channels. Much better. Only lost it once for about 1 minute after a real bad t-storm moved in. Hail, lightening etc. After 1 minute, it was back.
Remember this, however....if you rely on the weather channel, you will NOT get your local on the 8's like before. No local weather unless you get the local package then it's just the main channels.
Where I live, we get some hum dingers of storms and used to watch the weather channel during them...now, it's a no go. Small sacrafice, however, for me
