Solar Outages

I want E*'s BUD! I was watching FoxNews today and apperently they pull FNC from G11 Analog because it started to get static (good ol analog sparkles I hadnt seen for years) but it never went out, just got really bad! I remeber the old days of Cable when Sun Fade would hit each oct and march that the signals would go completely out and the cable company would put up a cheesy slide for 10-15 minutes until it passed.

Guess E* has an advantage with the larger downlink dishes, than the local cable guys (which use 10ft Cband dishes)
