[AT] O/T satellite internet

[Kevin]

  It means no trees buildings,  things that would block good reception. 
Rain and clouds have no effect on it, unless extreme weather. Thats the only 
time we shutdown the directway receiver kinda like rebooting.  Your sat TV 
will go out before the internet.  Have heared that some one had to take a 
broom and sweep snow off their dish once. Ours never gets any snow stick to 
it ? and its just 5` off the ground so it would be no problem.
