So I've done some searching through this thread and I'm wondering, what's the experience of Chicago folks with rain fade of late. We just had our Voom installed about three weeks ago and that's my big gripe. It's cut out three times in the past three weeks--we live near the lake in Roger's Park and it's probably the dense cloudcover/electrical over the water to the southeast that does it. Not good, especially since we're heading INTO rainy season and we almost missed the finale of one of our favorite shows because of the lost signal.
I had asked for a 24" dish to proactively prevent but the Voom CSR said I'd have to speak with the installer. Well, the installer didn't call until they were practically on our doorstep, then said that he didn't have any 24" dishes and the order had to be done through Voom.
My questions: Anyone have luck getting a bigger dish installed...And/Or is an elliptical just around the corner (new bird/required new dish), so are we all to wait it out?
