the dirty little cable secret: they get their signal from the same satellite i do, then plex it and flex it and mexx it, load it and code it--often overmode it, and force it into a billion corroded contacts submurged in salty water for a million miles after miles...'til it gets to your house...it's absolutely the worst signal you can get--the worst!
cut out the middle man and get yourself a dish, man!
{the best signal you can get is free off-the-air digital HD broadcast by your local PBS station and sometimes by the networks...but you knew that right?}
