Ok direct tv/dish users. How reliable do you find the signal. Thinking of dropping cable but keep hearing about bad signal breakup in bad weather.
Wed've had Directv for years and years. The signal is extremely reliable for us. If a torrential rain is on the way, it might blink out for a few minutes, but never any more than that.
I think a lot depends upon your geographic location. I had Direct for a 2 year contract and every thunderstorm would give me a blank screen. Since this is Florida, summer T'storms are common. Now on cable and pretty reliable.
Don't know if the providers will give reliability numbers but I would definitely ask and also ask about reliability guarantees. If you don't ask, you won't get!
