The USB port is also used to download the firmware for the basic operation of the STB. I use this port on other FTA receivers to download new firmware from my computer.

Deann, The problem only happened with fiberglass ladders. The ED209's could not function properly when they became ungrounded. Aluminum ladders where fine. ;)

They have a very large magic wand to wave and all will be well. Remove the dishes and patch holes in your roof? You must be kidding! Not going to happen. Look at these items as battle scars or trophies. Wax the dish once a month and tell your war stories to the new neighbors when they ask what...

You are right about everything you point out in the differences between the two providers. I had E* for 8 years before Voom and thought the inconveniences were something we had to live with due to the nature of HD and SD together on the same box. No we don't have to live with them as proved by...

Now theres a true Voomer! Where do we send the flowers? The roof top or the stain on the sidewalk? :p

What's this? A couple of rabbit ears I see showing out the top of Chuck's hat? :D

And I thought I was hopelessly optimistic about saving Voom. One ingredient you seem to overlook on the whole issue is MONEY. This is why CV is closing the doors on Voom. It is loosing way too much MONEY to make any business sense to keep it open. 40K subscribers will not float the Voom boat nor...

I am going to guess there are only a handful of Voomers here at this site. Maybe a couple of hundred give or take. How would 2 tenths of one percent of the Voom customers sway or start a movement of the remaining 99.8% of the Voom customers? Not too likely but stranger things have happened in...

RAVE !

Were too busy crying in our beer to post. :no

I can accept that Voom is done. I am talking rabbits here!

Now I get it! This is why the Voom DVR never rolled out. :(

I named my third Trey!

I work from home and watch Voom on an analog set in the office. I don't have any rat's asses to give you anyway but did give my opinion and I do care. The whole point of my praise of Voom 21 programming is to look past the image quality to the programming it's self. No one else is doing Rave...

I know we are all on the HD band wagon but... In my opinion the Voom 21 channels are so unique I would sub to the package even if it was SD. The Voom programming even on a SD analog set looks DVD quality. This is not to say if D* or E* got hold of it it would be soft HD lite as HD and...

In the past or have they been more prevalent or new to the present?

I just find it curious I am noticing commercials on Voom for the Voom 21 HD channels and programing. Don't remember seeing those types of commercials in the past. Were they there and I just did not see them or is something brewing?

salsadancer7 Thanks for your support. I noticed in your previous posts in other threads you have said you believe this to be true. At least I am not alone on this. Or could we just chalk it up to misery loves company? We will have to wait and see. :yes

The CSR's will follow the script to the bitter end. :rolleyes:

Boy does that take me back! My Psych 101 class at IU in the 70's. I know this dates me as a OLD fart but even the senile can be optimistic. Can't they? :p

This may be a factor but out of 50k subs give or take a few, not many are on a pay by check basis. The majority are on credit card auto-pay as that was the main criteria for initial installation of Voom. Bookkeeping is not a real issue in this age of computerized billing. Although this could...

This is the major variable. What about Voom 21? Can it survive a s a stand alone HD add on? And if so how,where and from whom will it be available? I really believe we will have an answer here soon. I wait with anticipation! :)

I am willing to accept the exit of Voom if it happens. After all it is only TV. All I am saying is the Dolan's do not play hardball with any rules I have ever seen and it would not surprise me in the least to see this story go on for a few more chapters.

I just have to speak my two cents worth after numerous phone conversations and reading between the lines. I believe we have to infer from what IS NOT being said more than what is that something is up. The vibes I am getting from Voom is "Oh boy I wish I could spill the beans!" Think about...

I believe a direction to go is clearer for me. As I have stated, on May 1st I will be out of town for the shutdown without a way to view the death of Voom. Not being a witness to the actual event may temper the emotional drain. :( Now to choices. I have Dish in idle mode waiting to fire...
