DirecTV

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Anyone have it?

Switched from Time Warner cable a while back, and I think I am starting to have dish alignment issues. For the first year it was perfect, and several windstorms later, now it gets screwy even in a light rain.

Dish Network is not DirecTV.

I didn't say "Dish Network," I said "dish." As in "thingy I have to point to get a signal" versus "cable I plug in to get a signal."

I've used satellite services far more over the last 10 years than I did cable. Dish services always seem to have the better hardware available, and they offer their stuff at a better price. I can't remember the last time I had a signal issue, storm or not.

Between Dish and Direct, I like Dish better.

I had Dish for a while, but TWC has always had better internet services, and that's what wins for me, not TV.

I had signal issues twice in 2 years, both during storms.
It's not me, it's someone else.

I still have Time Warner internet.

I am losing channels even in light rains, now. I guess I need to get them out here.

Maybe it's that the trees have leaves on them now?

I have Comcast for Internet. I've never subscribed to the bundle thing. I take the best of whatever is offered. Not the cheapest.
