Default Rains

I am currently moving to Chennai where there are heavy rains and so I want to ask that Tata sky will work fine there or not because i have heard that there are signal problems during rains.

Rain or no rain.. if your dish is secured properly and doesn't move with winds your signal is going to be constant and rains don't make any difference at all.

Yes correct but I am in Panipat at my uncle's place and I saw a new problem here that there are monkeys on the roof and they dance on that disk and will make it move. Now he has ordered a cage for the dish.

If you put a metal cage on the dish it will interfere with the signal..

Rains will always destruct signal coming from satellite to dish and due to this in rainy season or on bad whether you will face this problem. and you cannot protect it, its always their.

I have lived in UK for so many years and I have sky tv over there with the same kind of dish attached to a wall and for those who dont know it rains almost every other day and some times rains for days together which goes on throughout the year and I have never experienced any trouble with the signal.. May be it might be a bit different here in India so can some other members confirm if this is the case?

Can you confirm its drizzling or it just a heavy rainfall with windy whether, if its light drizzle then signal won't be affected but in second case disruption is surely their.

I have seen some very rough weather as well without any trouble with sky signal in UK but yes I do agree that rains are not as much as we get in India in monsoon season.

lolz......thats funny...ya the best solution for that is to put a mesh aur barbed wire around it....monkeys dont like hurting themselves :P

rains dont affect the signal of tata sky..in my hostel near shimla it rains and also snows a lot...however i have tata sky there and signal remains perfect....

Well if there are heavy rains then there are chances that there can be some signal problems. Like this is my experience.
