Bad Luck, Gaff! I lost my signal about 10 minutes after the match ended...

At least your cable didnt go out. That usually lasts for 3 days.

I'll take the loss of reception a handful of times/year over all the BS monopoly attitude Comcast gives us any day. DTV gives me much better options and quality customer service...they'll continue to get my money.

Your satellite antena probably needs re-alignment. Your IRD can give the current BER (Bit Error Rate) count. If its more than 4 then you'll probably loose your signal on averag size t-storms. If its 4 or less it will take a hell of a storm for you to loose reception. So check out the BER and give DTV a call.

have had both Dish and Directv at different times for 4-5 years now.

In AZ we get short, but INTENSE rain bursts in summer, and I've only had 3-4 occasions of severe pixelization, and one 5 min. outage during that time. Typically, the picture clears up while it's still raining, just not so hard.

Could the set-up of a public location be part of the issue? or do homeowners get the same ratios of problems?

I have to many trees on my lot for satellite. I picked up Setanta Broadband. Overall I'm pleased with the service and like the portability. The only drawback is they don't have all the broadband rights, so some games that are available on satellite, are blacked out online.
