I've had two dishes professionally installed, and two receivers swapped out, and still my DTV is a pixelated mess and the receiver randomly reboots.

I'm going to try cable myself in June. I'm tired of DTV's claims that they are better. Of course, they may actually be better, but right now I'm bugged enough to switch.

And I'm real tired, as a DTV customer, of hearing about what's coming soon. It's been coming soon for like 2+ years now and still not any better. I hear they are putting another satellite up in August for service in September, but maybe I'll give cable a few months to prove their worth, and go back to DTV in September/October if cable really is worse.

ETA: 7 years on this board and this is the first time Im the first post... Just had to say that!
