I believe you will. I had DirecTV for about 8 years, and virtually all electrical storms will negatively effect your signal, to the point of being unable to watch TV. Heavy snow and rain, likewise. I

The results really weren't very different. The internet signal was slightly more reliable, but the huge majority of the time, they were either both out, or both on. I did have to build a ~15' brush t

Just re-measured with the Fluke and one cheap meter side-by-each. 129v peak measured 125v RMS on the Fluke. 264v peak was 249 RMS ( 6% error ). Still high, but not enough to cause any problems, I don
