just a bit of rain shouldnt ever kill your signal as mentioned. If it does your dish is likely off alignment or something is blocking its line of sight (tree branches for example). A long cable run also could be the cause. The issue is a weak signal to begin with though if just a slight rain causes outages.
Depending where you live, you may want to consider snow. Installing it lower for example unless you like to get on your roof in January with a foot a snow.
Unless you want the NFL pass, you get more for your $ with Dish Network. I still prefer DTV though (creature of habit I guess).
Cost can add up for multiple rooms. Something to look into when you compare. No clue what you have now. Also local channels may not be available in your area if you're in more of a rural area. Ask the provider if your not sure, not a salesperson looking for commission.
Installation if you pay for it can be hit or miss. Most get paid per job (a lot of dumb sub-contractors too) and they tend to cut corners... Like not grounding your system. They also can be a shady with adding costs for work. Wall mounts, phone jacks, etc. Not all are bad of course, but I would still be there watching them if you dont install it yourself. Last thing you need is some retard tech drilling through your floor and carpet or something stupid.
You've called TWC already I assume?
