1.2 m Alaska/Hawaii dish I live in southeast Texas and also have annoying problems with rain fade. I bought a 1.2 meter Alaska/Hawaii DirecTv dish from The Satellite Shop, and greatly improved the situation. Now, instead of outages that last tens of minutes, they only last a minute or two on...

OK, looks like I have created some confusion. Sorry about that. I have two dishes, a Slimline 5 with a 5lnb and an Alaska Hawaii dish with the 3lnb for 99/101/and 103 satellites. I have one receiver, an HR23, with two tuners ( I should have used the word "tuner" and not "receiver"...
