sattelite signals

Only the worst of very heavy rain or very dark clouds will cause my satellite to go out, but then for only a minute or so. Call the company that installed it and have them check it out. You should not loose signal very often.

Mine drops out a lot more then I thought it would.I checked the installation of the sattelite and its mounted securely to the house. Works great when the weather is good.If I known it would go out so often I would have kept cable in the house,and got a pay per use for the camper.I was hoping there was some type of booster that could be added.

Some parts of Florida have been unusually rainy this year. I'd say it was the rain. If it's raining to the south of you, it can impair the signal. Usually passes pretty quickly tho.

location is everything haha... When we was running SAT TV we always seem to go the same places so tried to get the same good camping spot everytime... seemed to help. Then sometimes it would just drop out for no obvious reason... I always blamed it on my old SAT RCVR..

I never played with The newer auto ones. See alot of them on trailers so must work pretty good.

When the NATL BROADCAST went digital we just sort of stopped bring the SAT STUFF along with us. The Natl Broadcast 6-36 digital channels was full blown high def TV anyway where our SAT TV was just regular TV. We eventually just let the DIRECTV SAT subscription expire on us...

Was this a professional install? You shouldn't be losing it more than maybe a few times in a year due to the worst rain and clouds. It's called "rain fade." Also, the installer should make sure it's securely anchored from wind.

No, there nothing you can do other than make sure the bird has a clear view of the southern sky.

Could also be trees that get wet and droop in your dishes view of the Sat.
The cable provider has the same problem where they receive the signal. But they also have larger dishes.
