    Pbshd Hi all, I also was having problems here in Klamath Falls, Or. in getting PBS-HD to tune in. Scanned just fine and was put into the PG as 8-1 (SD) and 8-7 (HD). Got a good pic on 8-1 and black screen on 8-7. Voom also remapped the channels and got the same results. Have asked many...

    West coast voomers, do you have rain fade?

    Bigger Dish = much less rain fade Hi all, I live in Klamath Falls, Oregon and was originally installed with the 18" dish. Even a cloud in the eastern sky would cause loss of signal. Rather than fight with CSR's, I simply went to the INTERNET and did a search for 30" dishes. Found what I...

    VOOM OTA Mapping Problems? (Channels listed are not as expected)

    So, when is Voom going to release the scanning program. It sure would solve alot of the problems. I still do not get PBSHD and it is being broadcast here locally. I did get it just fine with D* so it is not a problem with the signal. It just hasn't been mapped even though I have asked for it...

    STB not able to display signal

    This is in response to "Ferdy": I have had this happen with one of my local stations. Don't blame it on VOOM. Try calling the local station and reporting it to them. I did and they went up on the mountain and hit a reset button on their computer and lo-and-behold, instant picture. Now back...

    24 inch dish install

    30" dish I ordered a 30" dish from a dealer to replace the 18" dish that they installed here in Oregon. My signal level went from a 40 to 97. I still get rain fade but not as bad. My dish is almost pointing towards the ground in order to receive the low angle signal from Voom. I can not...
