    Strong wind & heavy rain usually give me more problems than snow.

    My Dish Network was way more reliable than Comcast. Of course, my FiOS blows them all out of the water - 22-month and not one secord of outage...TV, phone and Internet.

    Usually it's the real WET snow that causes trouble.
    Normal snow usually you'll have no problem.

    Thank you. I live in upstate New York and have said before that I haven't had a snow related outage in almost 11 years with DirecTV. Some folks here doubted me.

    An overview:

    All these systems have improved over the years and all have great potential. It has been the competition produced by the newest technology coming along to take all the money from the only game in town that has improved the best at the expense of the weak and arrogant.

    If it wasn't for the various satellite providers the CATV providers would not answer phones and would just send out price increases.

    We are getting to a point where the variety of available technologies will continue to keep the market active...and grind the slow or incompetent.

    I'm guessing the answer to the advertising question may lie in becoming a Pub Member.
