I was all set for an install yesterday, but my fears quickly became true. I couldn't get installed because the subcontractor said that there were trees in the line of sight for at least one satellite. Is there a website that one can go to an put in one's address to see if I would be able to...

I am getting Dish installed tomorrow, could someone PM me with a code please. THANKS!!

Thanks guys. I got frustrated and ended up returning the product and got a regular receiver and then hooked that up to my computer. I wanted to be able to record shows on my computer. It's up and running and it actually works!

I am using Visionplus Twinhan DTV 2.431. I emailed Twinhan my same questions and they sent me a link, but it didn't answer any of my questions. I emailed tech support again, but I haven't heard back. I've had the dish since Monday, but I can't do anything with it. Help PLEASE!!!

I just installed the Starbox USB on my Windows XP computer. I installed the latest driver 2.431. A couple major problems. It only gives fixed and DiSEqC1.2 as choices and not USALS. How do I get USALS as a choice? Also I looked online and at several forums to try to find out how to get the...

Let me put in another 2 cents worth. First, thank you Truqui, you came up with many great points. Clearly, VOOM's forte is HD, but if they don't get more subs they won't be around much longer. They are doing something which is smart and going after another market. If you have studied...

I normally don't respond to any of these postings. I am an avid reader of the posts and if I have a question, I will post one. I was just astounded at some of the things that were being said and I thought that I should voice my displeasure with some of the items. I am a loyal VOOM subscriber...

Another question that I have. As I looked at the satellite charts I came across some new questions. I take it I would be able to receive the DVB signals, anything else? I know that NTSC are US TV signals, would I be able to receive those? Would I be able to receive the PAL channels? Also, I...

Thanks! Thanks so much for the information! I am still doing some online research and I hope to try some things out in the near future. I went to one of the suggested sites and there was a great price on a PC USB receiver with a full system for about $180. Does this seem like a good price...

I just ran across this forum and it excited me. I am a current VOOM customer, so I was on the site looking at the VOOM forum when I ran across this forum. I know absolutely nothing about FTA, except what I have learned in the last hour perusing websites. I found a few DVB-USB devices instead...

If you can't get anything on your system, a little something is better than nothing. I paid $14.95 for the EURO Action Pass through Real Player and I get to hear live audio feed and see extended highlights of every game. They also have a good amount of video from past years. Quality of video...

Of course I would love to see even more HD programming, but I agree with several others about USA. TOUCHING EVIL and MONK are 2 great shows. I still have my cable too so I can get FOOD, HGTV, LIFETIME, and my favorite BBC AMERICA. TOUCHING EVIL was originally a BBC show that has been remade...

Ilya, I bought the Jensen TV 920 for 39.99 and the Jensen TV 930 for 49.99. I bought them at Best Buy. I've gotten so many Reward Zone certificates, because it seems like I stop in the store about once a week. I'm a gadget freak and I love music and movies. I also am a big fan of soccer...

Just a note about your antenna possibly not being OK with your home association. I live in Dublin,Oh and wasn't able to get CBS. Can you believe that? I went to Best Buy and ended up purchasing 2 different indoor antennas to try on both of my TV's that I have VOOM on, and they work perfectly...

I currently have a 20" dish, and I haven't had any problems with rain. I actually have over 90% quality. The installer was amazed at the signal that I got. I live in the suburbs outside of Columbus, OH. I'm not sure how many of you have heard, but I ran across an interesting article...
