We had Direct TV at the S&B at the old house for 12 years and loved it. Rarely lost signal only in bad storms and then it only lasted a few minutes. We had an in motion unit on our first MH and found it a complete waste of money. Most CG's had trees where we camped and underpasses and trees would disrupt the signal while travelling. We opted against it on the new MH. Now we have cable at the new house and I will say I like it. The signal is MUCH clearer and really reminds me why I bought an HD tv. Internet is the other benefit to cable. Bundling it was cheaper than direct TV and another internet company and it's MUCH faster than SAT internet. We only have the antenna on this MH (unless a CG offers cable) and it's hit or miss depending on where we are. But I am always reminded of what my son told me a few years ago. "Dad, we are camping, we don't need TV".
