    If Charter Communications Is Available In Your Area-Read This

    Hey, I am from Sheboygan too. I talked with a Charter CSR two weeks ago and she said HD and the DVR would be launched in our area in September. She then put me on hold to double check and came back and re-assured me with September. I know how CSR's can be so I check with a friend of mine that...

    VOOM Shutdown Update

    I hear ya! I am in the same situation with Charter. Every other town around me has Time Warner with HD of course. Charter has been giving me the run around about when they will be getting HD for the last 18 months much less a DVR. I might see it in September. I feel your pain.

    VOOm in Wisconsin

    Sheboygan I have been Vooming since February of this year and love it. I am in Sheboygan about 45-50 miles from Green Bay or Milwaukee. After running separate lines from the antenna and dish, and boosting the OTA signal with an amplifier from Radiosnatch I now get all the major networks...

    Talk I had with a csr

    I was actually installed after the promo started, but I signed up 2 days before the promo started and they still wouldn't give it to me. I am planning and going VaVa anyway, but 2 months for free would have been sweet.

    Adding a Preamp to OTA antenna

    I have heard the same thing. Over amplifying can actually decrease your signal. As far as my problem I think I am going to attept to run seperate lines from the antenna to the receivers and see how much that helps. (When it gets warmer) Superjfly

    Adding a Preamp to OTA antenna

    Since being installed on Monday my reception of local channels has been decreasing and doing strange things. I went from 12 locals to 8. Five of those are PBS. I am getting channels from the opposite side of the antenna and not from the right side. Does that make any sense? On top of...

    [VOOM] Voom Clock

    Me too! It looks like it would be big enough to see from across the room unlike my puny VCR and DVD clocks. Thanks for the reply.

    Voom and ReplayTV

    So this means you don't need a dedicated computer to make this work? Just set it up once?

    Adding a Preamp to OTA antenna

    It isn't their normal antenna he said. It is huge if you ask me, I am right on the fringe of most signals 45-49 miles away. It looks similar to this... http://www.solidsignal.com/prod_display.asp?PROD=ANC3671&xzoom=zoom#xview

    Adding a Preamp to OTA antenna

    I was just installed yesterday, I haven't been on the roof to see what was all done. The installer said the antenna signal was not amplified. I have two lines coming down from the antenna and dish total, each one going to a different receiver. The receiver closer to the antenna pulls in 12...

    Adding a Preamp to OTA antenna

    Good question. Did you find anything out about this? Because of the single line being run from the dish/antenna, can the amplifier only be put near the antenna? Superjfly

    811...Is it or is it NOT IR controllable...?

    Neighbors controlling my 811! The last few days my channels started changing sporadically. I figured out that my neighbors just got the Superdish and could have a UHF remote. Well I can change my remote code to anything other than 1, and it will work, but then my Replay 5504 won't control...

    811 Wanted!!!

    After calling to set-up my 811 last night, the guy on the phone said they are looking at 3 more months. This was talking directly to DISH, not SBC DISH. I've found you get zero answers through SBC DISH. Neil

    811 Wanted!!!

    I appreciate all that have messaged me about my quest for an 811. I've tried emailing DISH directly with no response. I broke down and bought one on Ebay. Neil

    Anyone from Milwaukee with 811 & OTA locals?

    Sorry about that. I should be receiving an 811 tomorrow that I purchased off Ebay. It is new, and I am not sure if an antenna comes with it. Even if it does, if that will work from my location. Does a regular antenna pull in HD signal? I am replacing a 301, will I be able to use the same...

    Anyone from Milwaukee with 811 & OTA locals?

    Sheboygan... antenna? I live up in Sheboygan, right between Milwaukee and Green Bay. With a regular antenna I can get channels from each city. What would be my best option for getting OTA HD channels? What would be the cheapest option? Thanks! Neil

    811 Wanted!!!

    I'm in search of an 811 receiver. I was tricked into subscribing through SBC DISH leading me on that getting HD would be no problem and somehow they can't get HD boxes directly from DISH. Three months of waiting is enough for me. Anyone willing to sell their 811 at a reasonable price...
