There's been a lot of rain where I am lately, and I have trouble with my reception sometimes. I also have DirecTV, and the only time my signal with that has ever gone out is with heavy thunder storms. Has anyone else ever had that problem?

No problem here. I'm just south of Philly and use my Roady
all day in work and at home. Reception is fine for me.

Use the 2-0-7 menu.

If you're getting a lot of your signal from a terrestrial repeater, then that happens. Sometimes repeaters go down and signal fluctuates a lot when it's raining, windy, etc. If you're getting a strong satellite signal, that shouldn't be a problem. Your antenna should always have a clear view of the southern sky (for the best reception -- but it works in other directions, too).

I have no problem at my house but sometimes in the car I get bad reception from the god damn trees that line most of the roads where I live.
