  1. Weather effects on Cable TV Versus Satellite TV? · · Score: 1

    In a really hard rain/snow fall here in Cincinnati, I lose some signal strength, but it hasn't lasted more than a couple of minutes, yet. The Apocalypse, of course, is due any day, which wil certianly put a damper on things. My only gripe with my service (DTV) is when I try to run more than 2 boxes at a time, in different rooms. The unit in the living room freezes up almost completely. Their techs kept saying my splitter was to blame, but since it was their equipment, they installed it, replaced it (2x) and they are all in-bred, I still don't have a solution to that. I put up with this truly minor inconvenience because our local area CTV provider is Adelphia, which sucks. TW is in the area, but we're a small pocket of resistance to that sort of assimilation and I don't want their service, either. Overall, I like the bird and if I didn't have DSL, I'd probably get their sat delivery of service. Regards, harleyb
