Get a bigger dish.

a bigger dish might help. you could also try the rain repleant stuff. i believe valueelectronics sells it.

moved to FTA section

You might need a bigger dish. I use a 36" and rain fade isn't as bad

 

[PSB]

I use a 36" dish and 0.3dB Invacom LNBF, recently we have had a few real bad storms and yes my signal quality dropped, but only slightly! The below product keeps my dish BONE DRY this goes a long way to combat rain fade!

Thank you very much to all of you, I will buy the rain shield and maybe a bigger dish.
