How frequent are the outages when land-based? And what sorts of weather
seems do do it?


At home heavy thunderstorms are the primary culprit. That's an issue
in South Florida of course but mostly during the summer months, and
mostly in the afternoon.

I'm sitting on the boat at the moment, moored and swinging at Block
Island in sporadically heavy rain. Reception is mostly solid but it
takes a five to ten second hit every 15 minutes or so.



The hit is because of the rain, the swinging, or both?
