    Dish in the Bahamas?

    Hey Stone, I'm not saying it's right. I'm saying the the Bahamian Government doesn't care that much if people steal a US product if the FCC can't touch them. I'm pretty sure that the majority of the population of the Bahamas cannot afford the typical satellite package, or high speed internet...

    Dish in the Bahamas?

    not legally, but everyone has D and E pretty much for free. Heck, they advertize pirate cards (with warranties) in the paper. I don't think the FCC can touch them over there.

    A hurricane is coming, what about the dish?

    take um down. I took mine down twice last year for Jean and Francis. I live in West Palm Beach. I unscrewed the mounting bracket from the house, so when I put it back, everything would be pointing in the same direction a before.

    It's yours

    Perhaps you can wrap the LNB in tin foil, or set up some sort of jamming signal. I need my locals OTA. This means war.

    Now I remember why I hate adelphia

    Called my local Adelphia yesterday. Told them I was a former Voomer and a Adelphia internet customer. Wanted to get HD. After a year since I cancelled them, they still have not got the four major local networks covered in HD. THere website says locals in HD, but they provide two. THe price...

    What do I do with my VOOM receiver?

    It still works as an OTA receiver which is keeping me in HD till I sign up with DIsh.

    I wondered why Voom Died, Now I know!

    Joemama. As a former voomer I can say that sure the programs on V were a little repetitive, but really no more than any premium movie channel. Watch Starz (only on V), Cinemax (only on V) or HBO for a week and see how many times they show the same stuff. Considering that I was paying about...

    Can't decide on HD-DVR for $250.00

    Do OTA locals incorporate into the program guide, or is it a mechanical switch to OTA

    Just got email from Dish (Voom offer)

    Wouldn't almost any combination require two dishes, thus another 100?

    OTA Signal Issues

    Is OTA HD incorporated into the channel guide on the HD dish receivers, or is it a switch to another source. Can the DVR record the OTA stuff?

    Anyone know what the real Dish/Voom deal is?

    This all makes the VOOM CSRs seem truly informative. I miss them.

    Will adelphia ever add the voom21???

    My Adelphia can't even get all the local major networks. West Palm Beach.

    TNT-HD Just added

    No TV western will ever be as enoyable as Deadwood. Sure the language is harsh, but the storylines are awesome. Nuff Said.

    Cablevision to raise Adelphia bid?

    Adelphia needs to be purchased. They are horrible in South FLorida. Don't even have the major locals in HD yet.

    Which HD Cinema Movies have you seen?Would you like to post your review of the movie?

    Iron Monkey is awesome. Unlike the programming guide, it's not the 1977 old style kungfu movie, its' the donnie yen, kickass movie. Delicatessen- Great movie. Same director as Amelie Howling 3- Horrible
