I just dumped direct tv. I knew these outages were coming. Maybe my dish placement was wrong. I was without signal so often, it just got to be too much!

Don't try to watch HD. Lost mine also, so just switched to SD channels and can still watch TV

That's what I do. Not worth dumping DirecTv over when they're the only one withTHE NFL TICKET

Me too. And outages are so infrequent...at least for us...it's not a big deal at all.

Default Direct tv
Very discouraged with direct tv. Referred a friend they said years ago they were a customer so I lost the referral & was promised a credit by 2supervisors they took that away! A little bit of false advertising

Problems are minimal. We had DirecTV in NYC and brought it down with us. Switched out for one year and went back. We love it.

Heheh. Compared to many other topics/threads, I would scarcely rate the opinions expressed so far in this thread as a controversy.

I think everyone with Directtv had that problem. I was so mad I missed some of the game. All the cable channels were on but not local.

We were watching a baseball game on DirecTV at 9, here in Tamarind Grove. No outtage. Storm must have gone elsewhere.

Must have been localized then, but somehow I don't think it was storm related. I think it was some sort of technical issue.
