Not sure what you mean my a touchy Genie. If you mean the HD signal, I could understand that, but I have not found the Genie to be touchy compared to any other HD receiver. The regularly occurring solar outage should have not effect of any kind on a receiver, only the signal received.
Had Direct since they bought out Primstar. Never had an outage from weather unless snow stuck to the dish. Probably lost signal 10 or more times just this year from rain storms. Service rep was out three times, last time the service rep said it happened to his since he installed the SWM with Genie. Said they were more sensitive to signal loss. Replaced most components and its better but sever thunderstorms still effect it with digital squares. Just repeating what he said and what I have expearanced.
