Dish vs. DirecTV

[ercjncpr]

possibly on topic for this thread am not sure, but we in southern Calfornia just experienced our first major rain storm since early last spring. It was a good chance for me to check out amy rain fade issues with Dish. I am please to report that there were NO rain fades at all...zip,nada,none! As opposed to DirecTV, where almost all of my HD channels would black out every time during a heavy rain. Some might say it was an alignment problem. I dunno, I am just very happy with Dish

Good observation - also in SOCAL with D in my home and had no fade. But since I do installs, mine is nailed dead on, as are all the installs I do.

Didn't hear anything from either my D or E customers from either the rain or the wind.

Good install is just flat out a good install, regardless of provider.
