    DirecTV Offers Rebate to Voom Customers

    I am curious to know if this offer will be extended to existing DTV subscribers such as myself that had both Voom and DirctTv.

    What about purchased receivers??

    Even with the dismal mood of the forum today that made me chuckle! :D Thanks!

    Voom should enable OTA permanently!

    I am curious about what is going to happen to those of us that purchased the receiver. I am keeping it of course (although I don't know what I will do with it) but are they going to want the dish back?

    New rumor I got this google alert sent to me today from: http://news.designtechnica.com/article6201.html erry Del Colliano of AudioRevolution has posted a news story claiming the struggling HDTV service provider could possibly cease to exist very soon. "Cablevision said in a regulatory...

    Rumor: HGTV Channel 615

    Actually it's called G4TechTv now, and like the previous post, it is not nearly as fun to watch as it used to be in the ZDTV days.

    New Download 2.11 software tonite (back to 6.20)

    Well Voom has made me happy again. I got the upgrade/downgrade back to 6.20 and my stb has not locked up since. Now if they would just add INHD or BBC America I would be ecstatic.

    New Download 2.11 software tonite (back to 6.20)

    I got it too, and if it stops my lockups, I will be sticking with Voom for a while more.

    **Rumor:** Dish Network and Voom combined?

    I know there is a rumor going around but a co-worker came in this morning and told me he just signed up for Dish Network. He said the CSR told him that they will be adding more HD content and that Dish purchased Voom and will be announced when it's finalized. This is what the CSR said and we...

    !!!!! STB Software Update (7.0b) Being Released - Starting Oct. 6th !!!!!

    That is funny, we live 2 blocks from each other and my stb got the software the first night. I have noticed no more lockups but the video flickers and sometimes goes to a blue screen before bringing in the channel after a channel change. That is for both sat and ota channels. I also noticed...

    !!!!! STB Software Update (7.0b) Being Released - Starting Oct. 6th !!!!!

    Ok, I got the update last night and have a little info. There are no noticable changes other than the software version number. Also you do not have to put your stb into standby mode. I actually fell asleep in my chair last night and when I woke up at around 2 am, the box was...

    Sony Commercial

    I don't want to be too picky but I saw this so much last night that it's not "And Dip" but "And salsa!" I will be seeing this in my sleep for the next year or so. :p

    Mass Exodus from Voom to DirecTV in October?

    I think one way Voom could battle would be to somehow sign INHD 1 and 2 to combat DTV's HDNet availablity. I would like to see all of them on Voom someday but I guess Mark Cuban has an issue with Voom and Cablevision.

    Audio/video breakups in 6.10 and the last OTA channel tuned (Some Fixes here)

    I'll be damned if this didn't work for me. That is amazing. Thanks to whoever figured this out, the satellite SD and HD were unwatchable. Switching to a strong OTA then to FoxSportsWorld worked for me.

    New Channels and Olympics on VOOM?

    The only one I can think of other than what you listed would be BBC America.

    New Channels and Olympics on VOOM?

    I would like any sports feeds possible. Any news about other regional fox sports networks? (Bay Area perhaps?) It will be nice for college sports but I got rid of the sports package on Directv because all the pro sports were blacked out anyway and I got Fox Sportsworld on Voom, plus FSN Bay...

    VOOM reception very flaky

    The 14 foot antenna helps, plus being equadistant from Sacramento and San Francisco helps as well. I get 9 of those 33 from PBS, (5 in SF, 4 in Sac)

    VOOM reception very flaky

    I hope so, the satellite channels both HD and SD were unwatchable last night, but thankfully the new OTA scanning jumped my OTA's from 14 to 33 and there are 4 or 5 that don't have the PSIP (is that the correct term?) so they won't lock. Makes me seriously consider spending $300 on a samsung...

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

    I got it, turned it on this morning and scanned OTA's and got 7 extra channels. 2 are in Spanish (I don't speak Spanish) but still. I picked up a couple of Bay Area channels and hope to get more when I point my antenna that direction.

    Why am I getting HDNet mapped to a local channel on VOOM?

    Where are you located? I am also about 67 miles from SF in the Central Valley (Manteca). I am waiting with baited breath for the scanning, I have a 14 ft radio shack Channel Master knock off that was rated at 150 miles so I am hoping I can get the sf channels but there are moutains between me...

    Crave Electronics

    I am out in the Central Valley (Manteca to be exact) and Crave did mine using a contractor from Sacramento. He was fantastic, ran extra coax for me and really worked hard and fast to get my system up.

    Take a Photo Tour of the Voom Facility

    I was spoiled, my parents bought me a 13" color tv when I was 9 in 1974 for my bedroom.
