    Can I use 2 antennas?

    I am thinking that is exactly right. I do not want to deal with a rotor for just one station and then have to turn it for the others. Keeping it simple sounds like the best way to go.

    Can I use 2 antennas?

    The NBC station is channel 39 and so is very close to my CBS channel which is 41 and that is where I am afraid the problem may be. I am in sort of a semi NBC hd no-man's land, 60 miles from 2 cities. My NBC on cable is sd now and would be easy to get because one of these stations has a uhf...

    Can I use 2 antennas?

    My SS picks up all of my locals except my NBC station which is 58 miles to my NE while the others stations are to the SW and NW, 6 and 17 miles respectively. I was given to understand that using 1 antenna I would need a rotor and I do not want to use one for just a single station. Would it be...

    good ota info

    I have found 2 sites that are helpful in finding which ota stations are available. Antennaweb.org is good about finding out about antennas, but it does not always tell about all of the stations available in an area. http://www.2150.com/broadcast/default.asp Using this site you can find your...

    Hooray! I have another channel. I now have my local Fox station and now all I need is NBC and I will be set for locals.

    OTA scan

    It just occurred to me that I might need a PIN, but as far as I know I have never had one, but pressing 0000 did get me there. Thanks.

    OTA scan

    Not to be particularly dense about this, but clicking the green button the second time gets me a screen that says "Warning! Contains settings that affect system operation. Use caution when modifying." Then it switches to a screen that says "Parental Control" and to enter the four-digit PIN...

    OTA scan

    I pressed the Voom button and then the green button 2 times which brings me to Options & Settings. There my choices are Quick Settings, Program Planner, Favorites, Parental Controls, and Local Channels. Can't find the installer menu.

    a SquareShooter question

    I guess I never thought that the super DMA would be any use to me until now. The NBC affiliate WEAU channel 13 in Eau Claire has been listed in my programming guide from the start, so it's the one I thought to go for, but have never been able to get. I'll wait and give it a try since it should...

    a SquareShooter question

    The only local broadcasting hd that I do not get is an NBC affiliate. I am in La Crosse, Wisconsin (54603) which is nearly the same distance, but neither close to two NBC affiliates: WEAU in Eau Claire (58 miles to my NE) and KTTC in Rochester (66 miles to my W). The natural to go for would...

    OTA scan

    I read over and over about channel scan, but how do you do it? I have looked for an explanation, but have not found it yet. It would seem like everybody should know the procedure, but I don't. Please point me in the right direction. TIA

    OTA antenna upgrade advice

    I cancelled my antenna upgrade on Thursday afternoon, the day of the great Voom news. After thinking about it for most of the day and hearing the installer's negative attitude that the antenna would not work without interferring with my other stations, I also decided that I did not want a big...

    OTA antenna upgrade advice

    The installer is convinced that a new antenna will not work for me and will be bigger than I want and will cause interference with my other stations. He complained about how little Voom pays for a service call ($45) and how poor they are about paying. He pretty much tried to talk me into going...

    OTA antenna upgrade advice

    I got some good info and advice from hometheaterspot, but antennaweb.org didn't help because they don't even list WEAU ch. 13 from Eau Claire as being hd. It also lists Fox ch. 25 as being digital, and has since I checked it last May and of course it is not, or not yet at least. Installs...

    OTA antenna upgrade advice

    I had my antenna upgraded last summer to a SquareShooter and I still do not get my NBC station which is about 60 miles to the north and east of me. My other stations are about 8 miles to the NW and SW and my SquareShooter upgrade got me those. The NBC channel is mapped and is receivable in the...

    program planner clock adjust

    I have tried using the programmer planner for timer recordings and it does work. The problem is that the channel does not change until after the program has already started. Is there any way to adjust the clock a tad earlier? TIA

    antenna solution

    When the SquareShooter was installed, the Installs guy tried to get the NBC station, but failed. The SquareShooter did pick up all of the other stations available including the CBS station which is north of the others and which the first antenna Voom provided did not pick up. The NBC station...

    antenna solution

    I have been vooming since last spring with few problems. I had my antenna upgraded to a SquareShooter and can get PBS, CBS, and ABC. Fox does not broadcast hd here yet and the SquareShooter cannot pick up the NBC station which is almost 50 miles away in the opposite direction of the stations I...

    Read Me First: Pre/Post-Installation FAQ for VOOM

    installation preparation I took the VOOM plunge and will have it installed on May 18th. Will the installer have the equipment or will it be sent to me? I have a bunch of equipment hooked up to my tv. Do I need to remove it all and just leave the tv for the installer and then hook it back up...
