    VOOM gone OTA here

    Ryan, I ordered and received the PS-9370, connected it directly to the cable from the Winegard Sensar OTA antenna (eliminated multiplexer) and attached it to my Directv HD receiver. OTA channels are back. Cost of the PS-9370, including UPS ground, $27.63. Thanks for the help. Martin21

    VOOM gone OTA here

    OTA Gone! HELP I may have screwed up. After VOOM satellite went dead I did a Factory Reset because one of the NYC channels was not mapped correctly and I needed to access the installation wizard which no longer worked. I knew about the need to get the box "hit" after the reset but thought I...

    Voom promises of 50 channels, price reduction, etc

    I received it today as well - snailmail. You need to pay $49 for the installation. I would do this in a heart beat if I only knew Voom was here to stay!

    Super-DMA is being released!

    Ilya, maybe it's just word differences but in my case Super-DMA, or some other download, has added the CT channels to my local listings. They were not there before and I did not do a scan because I am unable to do so. In fact, it has added a number of CT stations for which I do not receive any...

    Super-DMA is being released!

    Thanks. I assume you had to call Voom to "hit" your box to reactivate, right? Martin21

    Was the Factory Reset pretty straight forward or did you have any problems? Martin21

    Super-DMA is being released!

    I just returned after one month absence. I see I have the super DMA for New York metro area which now adds Connecticut stations as I well (I live in CT). This is great since I get 8-1/8-2 from New Haven loud and clear. However, there is a mapping error in Channel 11-1, which is WPIX the WB...

    Super-DMA is being released!

    Illya, the answer is yes, ABC, Channel 8-1and 8-2 in New Haven, but on a different receiver not on the Voom receiver. There are no stations outside of NY and NJ shown on the Voom receiver. These have always been there. Should additional stations, e.g. CT, automatically appear in the channel...

    Super-DMA is being released!

    Anyone know how to tell when you received new DMA mapping. I am in the New York City DMA. I don't see any additional channels. My Off-Air Map says 0001. Martin21 :confused:

    Voom, CVC, FCC, and Installs, Inc. - What Now And Why?

    There is a lot of interesting and thoughtful comments in this string. I certainly agree that Installs, Inc. with its awful record from my perspective (more on that), was not the sole cause of the failure of Voom. Poor go to market strategy, poor product planning and lack of current market size...

    Rainbow Spin-off is dead

    VOOM's Future For those of us who want to speculate, I would emphasize that VOOM lost $212 million in the first nine months this year. If the run rate remains the same for Q4, the total for the year will be close to $300 million. Pretty soon that gets to be real money (as Senator Everett...

    Getting new software V726, are you?

    V726 Problem On three separate occassions within the last 10 days when I turned on the stb there was no sound or picture on any of the channels. The channel banners and information were shown. In addition, the stb would not turn off from the remote or the button on the front of the stb. I...

    Getting new software V726, are you?

    V726 Caller ID I was away for a week. Upon return I find I have received V726. I had to do a cold reboot to get the Caller ID to work. I have the same problem noted by others: it displays the last previous call rather than the current call. No other problems detected so far. Martin21

    Amendment #4 To Form 10: Rainbow Media Enterprises (all related articles posted here)

    My impression is that they did not have a well considered go to market strategy from the beginning. They really need to decide whether they are a niche, providing only HD and priced accordingly, or a full service alternative to D* and E*. Renting space on Americom 6 is laughable. Although I...

    CONFIRMED: New version 6.10 has arrived! (Please post your observations here)

    martin21 6.10 downloaded last night. no problems. ran scan local channels. no joy for any CT channels. one dt channel from Long Island added. Fox New York continued. probably means off air antenna needs new rotation.
