How do you stop weather from affecting your dstv signal

And the spray. It's mostly for snow but helps with rain too.

I went out and bought the expensive stuff:

Can I use a Pepsi bottle as opposed to the Coke? I don't drink Coke as they are promoted by KFC who are cruel to chickens. Also, Coke is more expensive and I need to recover the extra monies I spend to the olive Spray and Cook

Guy I don't think that Olive Oil Spray and Cook is Non-stick. I made the same mistake once. Read the back of the label. Or maybe mine was a different brand.

Not really, that umbrella will get blown away.

A new LNB costs less than that umbrella...

Jeez man why can't you idoits be more specific now? I though since I am struggling as much as the OP that only the best will suffice in this instance. I'm off to get some:

It says non-stick on the can so I hope this does the trick.

Hardly reassuring...

Your dish doesn't talk to the satellite, the satellite talks to your dish and your dish (exclusively) listens. Think of it as your gf/wife talking to you and you just executing her instructions without talking back

I noticed that the only channel where I ever have issues is that MTV channel, even if there's only a slight breeze. But that doesn't faze me much as I almost never watch that channel.

Yes correct for the case of television which is a one-direction system.

However I'm in the satellite telecommunications business thus the reason I offered my input that weather is not your problem but instead issues caused by weather are.

So a viable correction in this case, but really quite irrelevant to the topic.

www.cricfree.tv not more than 1Mbps is required. Decent quality as well, connect to our 32" via HDMI, you couldn't tell the difference (SkySports 1 2 3 4 and a few other channels) between it and DSTV.

signal strength 72%, signal quality 100% Thanks

That's ur problem, and should be 98/100

Get you dishes alignment checked

Are there maybe any trees obstructing the dishes LOS to the satellite? We had a tree grow very high over the last few years and whenever it rained, even just a bit, our signal became terrible! The tree wasnt even that thick and was quite far from the dish. So we had a guy come out and immediately he said trim the tree because for some reason even just a few drops of water on the leaves made the signal terrible, so we trimmed it and just like that our signal is perfect again, even during storms.
