Newbie to Voom Forum and need help!!
I bought a Voom DSR 550 off of Ebay last month with NO remote (ugh!). I've spent alot of time researching these and here's my problem...
Issue #1 No remote - I was able to set up an OFA URC6131 remote with Motorola code 0869 and the Voom box responds (yeah). I read in other forums that the guide & menu buttons can be used as the green and yellow buttons on Voom remote. But, when I press them - I get nothing but a blinking yellow light on the box. Can I use this remote to go into options setting? What button would be the Voom button? Instead of acessing options all it says is "checking for new programming, process may take a while..."
Issue#2 - Went to Antenna web and found DT ch's - when I find a channel ID # that I should get (ex 55.1 - even though it's preset from the same channel in California - I live in NY - I should get something right?) I am getting no signal. I am using is a GE Futura indoor HT 24736 antenna. Is there a way to get any signal as is or do I have to have original remote? I will buy one if I know the box will respond. Maybe the OTA modual in back is no good?
Again, any help would be great!
