    Thank You letters to VOOM and Charles Dolan

    Mr. Dolan, thanks for making an awesome outlet for today's technology. It's great to be able to utilize the power of new HDTVs on the market. VOOM is the only provider that is making that happen. You can always count on my word of mouth support. You can also count on me being the first to invest...

    Horrific Install!!!!

    Fixed! Thanks for your help again TYork. I found the problem yesterday when I was up on my roof trying to reaim. The UHF loop that the downlead wire is connected to was not touching the antenna beam on one side. I bent the small metal tab down to contact and get 95-97 on all my OTA channels...

    Yeah, they strapped it to a gutter :) I just got off the phone with Voom CSR. They're sending out a tech for site survey to determine if I need an amp on Tues. I'm satisfied with how they're handling so far. I also requested a different installer. The same one wouldn't know how to correct...

    BTW, can I use an inline amp just for the combined sat/ant cable before my HDTV STB. I don't usually watch the rest anyhow. Or just end all this nonsense and call Voom again. ???

    yes, they installed the diplex on all 3. BLAH. I don't have any easy way to get power before the multiswitch. :mad: I've got a huge antenna now, not ampd and had the Sensar 2200 that obviously had no amp pwr. When I amp this baby, will it have too strong of a signal to the recvr? still...

    I have 3 receivers. The diplex is the 3 in 3 out Winegard. I have no idea why I would be receiving bad signal for OTA. The installer did have more trouble getting good signal for OTA just on my hdtv (its was the existing RG6 with 2 connectors, not a new cable run). Do I need to run new cable to...

    Horrific Install!!!!

    Well, they sent 1 of the original installers out. Nice as pie. He did everything I asked, and installed the antenna upgrade. No idea what model, but its a big Channelmaster. (Haven't had a chance to get up on the roof and look). He didn't install a preamp though, and sometimes a couple of...

    UPDATE: Installers are coming back out today to fix their work, and install an upgraded antenna at the same time! Quick service huh? I talked to the owner of Install Inc's subcontractor last night. He called and while he did make a lot of excuses, said he would have a crew over this A.M. to fix...

    Sad But True

    I've got all my hopes riding on VOoM Its just the suspense that's killing me. Kinda like that STD test I had, you just want to know the results NOW! :D

    TYORK - Thanks! I just got off the phone with the field manager for my area. He's supposed to give me a call back when he finds out what's going on. He did try to say that their installers are in a hurry because of the Super Bowl... does me no good since I don't get FOX ( I had it before his...
