Voom's Dead

[DarrellP]

12:01 P.S.T. signal went out, no message or anything. RIP VOOM. OTA still alive.

*sniff* [single tear rolls down face]

 

[OR541]

[DarrellP]

*sniff* [single tear rolls down face]

Only 1? Come on Timm, have a few more brewskis. Hopefully later today, I will have the Dish Voom 10 active.

Voom you were great!!

Voom is dead. Long live the Voom21.

 

[timjf]

Sad to see you go Voom.

 

[0s and 1s]

Strange...I still have a lot of channels left. History channel, MTV, Fuse...and my favorite, Lifetime.

 

[Green_Flea]

Tis a sad day indeed, was great while it lasted though.. well I guess its time for Drinko De Mayo!

 

[SeattleVoomer1]

Yep, we enjoyed VOOM until the bitter end.

Will be missed. Still have OTAs here in Seattle as well.

Seems strange that VOOM just turned off in the middle of HDNews. No goodbye to loyal VOOMers. Nada. Nothing. Just like we never existed. Had hoped for a little more class from VOOM even though I didn't expect it from Cablevision.

Still enjoying OTAHD under clear Seattle skies, Gill

:river :river :river :river :river :river It was a thing of beauty, while it lasted. Vicki

 

[SeattleVoomer1]

Vicki, you're still up!

:river :river :river :river :river :river It was a thing of beauty, while it lasted. Vicki

Thought you'd be under the table by now.

Yep, sad indeed but was a thing of beauty until the last. Will be sorely missed.

So, still a little bit enjoying OTAHD under cloudless Seattle skies, Gill

 

[DarrellP]

I just signed up for the Voom 10 with Dish, but I am not receiving any programming yet. The acquarium on the Demo channel is stunning.

No, Gill, too sad to enjoy fine spirits of any type...I associate good food and libations with celebrations...it's never worked to drown my sorrows....Gonna go cry in my pillow now. Somebody please turn the lights out. :river :river :river Vicki

 

[spahoose]

Goodbye loyal Voom Customers

It's been a pleasure serving you......................

 

[DarrellP]

No, Gill, Somebody please turn the lights out. :river :river :river Vicki

That's what they said in Seattle back in the 60's when Boeing was about to go tits up.

 

[DarrellP]

I have them! I had me EPG on All Subbed and when I switched to All Channels, they showed up, WOOHOO! I be Voomin again.

 

[gee]

It is 2:15 am PST and still getting the VOOM guide and some HD on local channels...surprised

 

[jeslevine]

i am getting the locals and HD also, there was a kill signal after all

It's been a rollercoaster ride since I subscribed in January, but I loved every minute of it. The only silver lining that I see is that it's May 1st and the weather is turning nice. I think I'll go outside and see some real HD. If I need to watch any TV I still have my 8.5' BUD hooked up.
Remember this Voomers we had a glimpse at the future of TV.
