I called Voom last night to confirm my uninstall date and they asked me again why I was leaving Voom and when I mentioned "to get the Sunday Ticket" the csr responded that Voom was in negotiations to acquire ST and that it was not exclusive to Direct TV. That has to be a load of crap right? I...

Yea, I wish I had read this post a couple days earlier. I missed a couple days work because of IVAN THE TERRIBLE so I havent check the boards in a few days. Since then I have gotten DTV and was very bitter to see that I could not watch my beloved Saints stink it up on ST. Having trouble with...

I tried Voom out for about 4 months but with the NFL season here its time to go. I honestly hope Voom does well because competition is always good for the consumer, but I gotta have my NFL Sunday ticket in HD. Its also nice to finally have all my local channels even though they are not in HD...

Where can I get one?

The cable company is Charter communications so anybody in southern Louisiana that has maybe tried their HD service or knows someone else who has then tell all!

I just found out yesterday that my local cable provider is now offering HD. Forgive me for not being as knowledgeable as most of you, but I am skeptical. Is true HD even possible without a dish. They are coming this Saturday to install it ( its a 30 day trial free offer so I have nothing to...

My favorite channel gone!!! You might know it would happen with the channel I watch more than anything. I called VOOM earlier today and ask them about and would you believe they are going to replace my receiver! It may have been the girl's first day but she set up an appointment for this...

This was in the June 14th issue!

I have a Phillips DVD recorder and it is connected to my VOOM stb via componet cables and works as well.

weird stuff with pic Now that you mention it, last night I had to reset my box because it froze up, but not completely- the picture would only display in the upper righthand part of the screen ( like when your surfing the pg) and the rest of the screen was completely blacked out.

Greg I live in Louisiana!

out of box settings Are the factory presets supposed to be close to the correct settings for grayscale, colortemp, contrast, sharpness and so on. My Hitachi 57" has four presets for the video depending on the type of program your watching: sports, news, movies, and music. I assume most...

Louisiana Voomer Although I dont live in Mandeville, I live in Livingston which is about 25 miles east of Baton Rouge. I dont get any of the locals. Get this- My installer's employer said that none of the networks are broadcast in HD and I basicly told her she was crazy seeing as how I had...

Did anyone catch this special last night on DiscoveryHD? It was awesome!
