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.
user or equipment error. good idea to go with cable. its a lot easier for people to use.

Considering I have done about 5 DTV installs personally with older DTV hardware, I say this newfangled 5LNB dish and associated H20 receiver with it's "add-on adapter for 5LNB dish" is suspect and needs the kinks worked out. It's definately not the user, here.

I too, have no real issues with most of DTV's package, but what's tolerable on non-HD channels gets a lot worse on HD channnels. Obviously, they are barely getting by with what they've managed to cram onto their existing satellites and need that new sat up asap to relieve some of this congestion. Maybe they can lighten up on the compression then too, but I doubt it as they are probably going to cram all that new "more HD content than cable" on the next bird.
