Why don't you take responsibility for your words and use a real name
instead of hiding behind anonymity?

IQ? I don't think I see any of your IQ? is your below the average to be
seen?

> service area. Those living in that area should be responsible to determine
I looked at the map and saw that I am in a fringe / partially covered
area, and that the signal availability and strength improves the closer
get to I-95, and that I should have almost-solid, if still a bit weak
(as in one to one and a half green bars instead of the system's full
three bars) by the time I reach an area where I'd be needing the data.
If you had bothered to read my post, rather than rant back at me, you
would know that I had also traveled "significantly" into an area where
the coverage map shows FULL COVERAGE before the receiver indicated it
was receiving any signal, at all.

It's not my IQ that's low, here.

Probabaly because you don't write clearly.

You also wrote: "The MSN Direct receiver should not be available here."
What exactly do you mean by that absurd statement? If I want to buy one, I
should be able to buy it.
You should also be aware that radio signals can vary a bit at certain times
of the year. On my normal commute to work I listen to a radio station about
70 miless from me. Another about 60 miles. Some days I have signal from my
house to work. Other times, especially in spring, I have a couple of gaps.
Cell phone signals can vary too.
