    Any way to reactivate OTA after kill signal?

    If the boxes are ours, can someone come up with a way to get OTA again? Cancelled two weeks too soon. mgh

    How much can I charge VOOM for storing their boxes?

    :D Really! When are they going to give us some info on what to do with the rental hardware? :confused: After considering my recent viewing habits re cable/voom, I'm seriously thinking that D*'s Sunday Ticket HD is what I want. Have a good one!

    Voom Alive! --- 21 days & counting (post sale of Rainbow 1)

    Excellent point(s). Given Voom's penchant for billing foul-ups and the chaos that will soon engulf their staff, it would seem imperative for Voom to clarify their shutdown schedule as soon as possible unless there is some miracle on the horizon. It might be wise to wait until the body is...

    Voom acting screwy on election day

    Turned voom on early this morning. Auto-switching repeatedly from channel to guide; controls nonresponsive; forced boot; channel locks screwed up; all channels locked if any are unless you remove the rating lock or your pin... Also the programming guide seems to have been in error frequently...

    Any way to make remote jump directly to multiple favorites?

    But it doesn't take you directly to the channel until you press ok or enter whatever.(not at home now). I'd like to go directly to the next picture without having to do that.

    Any way to make remote jump directly to multiple favorites?

    I know that you can scroll through the favorites listing then choose one and jump to it, but I really like my cable's favorite set up. You can jump directly through all your favorite selections seeing each as you go. Can it be done on Voom?

    If you like sports might be time to leave Voom

    Any football fan would have to admit that after viewing SportsCenter highlights in HD, having Sunday Ticket would be marvelous. I did get to see the Colts Titans ota which was great. Then it was Raiders Bills, not so great. FSN for the Los Angeles area would keep me a happier camper. I...

    Are you getting a signal from 321, 593 & 594 (post here)?

    re Olympics "subscribe and get" = don't get on 321 et al No wonder Voom gets ripped, when they send out confusing messages like this. :no

    stb problem - anyone else? Yes, don't reboot if you don't have to

    My other stb is now doing the same thing. Trying Sean's fix. 1 DOA order from ebay today and another substandard arrival two days ago. grrrrrrrrrrrrr

    stb problem - anyone else? Yes, don't reboot if you don't have to

    The stb won't change channels and won't turn off. I've turned the power off to the unit a number of times and waited for reboot, but no improvement. The other stb has no problem. Any ideas? Thanks, mgh :confused:

    HELP! Voom charged my card over $1000!!?!

    I called Voom. The CSR aka "Jeff" said that it did appear to be an error, that he'd notify billing, that it would take a few days to rectify. I asked him to have them call me when things were put right. However, after reading another similar thread, I"ll probably go ahead and dispute the...
