Service technicians are phobic about wind blowing a ladder down to fix the satellite. I'm now on day 5 without TV, and we lost our only source of information about Tropical Storm Faye. The satellite went out during a tornado watch, with two left in the watch when the satellite went out. I had to make a deal for help with a friend the next day to learn emergency information.
I would recommend everyone stay with cable, as it's not the first item to go during a severe storm. Also, I'm giving DirectTV a timeline to come in and fix the TV. If they don't do it by 11:30 AM Saturday, I'm going to tell them a man with seizures is handling the problem, and I'm going to call the local news and spill everything I know about DirectTV.
