I feel your pain. There is nothing like watching the weather regarding a possible tornado and then losing the signal because of the weather. I have Dish Network here in Oklahoma with local channels. Works pretty well most of the time, but if the radar shows red over your location...you ain't getting no signal.

I have a small b/w tv that I use for those occassions, but as Martin has reported, after 2009, those won't work either. In my experience, most of the local weather men around here would love to be the first to report "Tornado on the ground", so there is alot of hype...almost like they want it to happen. So checking the live radar on the internet works for me.

Oh well..the industry had to do something to spur us all to buy more stuff. Hey these folks have way to many tv's and they are lasting too long..let's just change the whole signal stucture and they'll have to start over. What a crock!!
