    Anyone know why MCE doesn't have the VOOM lineup

    I didn't hear an answer to this question yet. Are you running the signal through your Voom STB via coax, s-video OR are you running the signal directly into the MCE using the RG6 cable from the dish? Thanks!

    Problem with Output Settings w/Sammy DLP

    I have the same TV but the 61" DLP. I got Voom installed yesterday and mine was doing the exact same thing. Got up today and it is still doing it, but only on the 1080i setting. I turned my TV off for a minute and it's fixed. If I try to go to a different output setting and then back to...

    Voom says no 30" dish...HELP.

    We all have to remember that there are variations in everyones case. There are location issues, weather issues, install issues, obstruction issues. We cannot base the facts on our own experiences alone. The 18" dish usually works fine. Some will get rain fade. Some because of poor install...

    Voom says no 30" dish...HELP.

    Well, just thought I'de let everyone know about my progress. Wilt and I have been emailing back and forth and here are the results. Just a reminder that this is for a new install, NOT for a customer with existing rain fade issues. -Rain fade only happends in a few cases and it is usually...

    Voom says no 30" dish...HELP.

    Thanks for all the discussion everyone. I ordered VOOM this morning and am more than excited for my June 2nd install date. It sounds like the way to go for the 30 incher is by emailing Wilt and talking directly with the installer. Voom kindly included my local installers phone number in the...

    Voom announces intent to introduce a HD DVR in the summer

    I wonder if this DVR will have a FireWire port to be able to record and play D-VHS like the Samsung T165 for Direct. I so want to put HD content on a hard copy.

    Diff between sears and voom?

    For the record, I don't mean to bag on Sears. I just think it is too new for them to know much about it. Some might rather work with someone in person.

    Diff between sears and voom?

    I tried going into both Sears in my area and nobody in either department knew how Zoom worked. Out of 6 reps all of them knew no more than Zoom offering some sort of satellite sevice. They didn't know what channels, how much, or even what to do if I wanted it. One of them even said the...

    Voom says no 30" dish...HELP.

    Wow Eric, thats cool info. It sounds to me like Voom is not going to have anything to do with a 30" dish. If you want one, you are going to have to discuss it directly with the installer. The key is to get the contact info and make sure the installer has a 30 incher on his truck. Thanks...

    Voom says no 30" dish...HELP.

    Thank you Sean, I value your input. The reason why I want to get the 30 incher is not mainly because of rain faid, after all I won't see any rain for 4-5 months. After reading about the guys that put them in I came to the conclusion that you pick up 'considerable' signal strength even in...

    Voom says no 30" dish...HELP.

    I called to become Vooms newest customer a minute ago and wanted to ask the Voom rep a couple questions first. One of them was to request an install of a 30" dish instead of the 18". She put me on hold and then came back saying they don't have a 30" dish, only an 18" dish. Whats this all...
