My OTA signal strength for my local channels has only been in the low 80's, still I'm surprised that I'm not receiving any channels. Additionally all of my locals are showing in my programming guide so I don't think there is a mapping issue. When I was using my old Mits / Hughes DTV...

What any one person thinks about Voom's pricing structure is irrelevant (including myself). I say this because it's the voice of the market that will determine Voom's long term pricing structure. I have no problem whatsoever with Voom charging as much as the market will bear. Voom is a...

Ilya makes a great point. As the premiere provider of HD programming Voom is in the position to charge more than their competitors.

I have an apartment, and I intially was going to have my dish pole mounted. So I bought a tripod from Rat Shack ($23.00) and went to Home Depoet and picked up a fence pole ($8.00). However, my installer suggested attaching the dish to the railing via a U-Bolt. My apartment complex is okay...

Lostcause makes a great point that I think many of fellow members forget...there are risks associated with being an early adopter.

Yeah...some installers ARE still using the Stealth. I had Voom installed two weeks ago, and the installed the Sensar. I have not picked up a single HD signal with this antenna despite the fact I am less than 15 miles from all the stations. I called Voom and requested the Square Shooter as...

I also live in an apartment, and my OTA antenna is mounted just as Drako described.

I currently do not receive any OTA channels, so I called Voom to schedule an appointment for an upgrade. Currently I have the Winegard Sensar, and an inspection of the installers work reveals that he did install the antenna correctly. But here is my problem, I live in an apartment with line...

You know I shopped at Fry's regularly when I lived in Arizona, and I loved the place. They sold a variety of low to mid end products, and had a much broader product selection than BB.

Stan I live in the Houston area, at what Tweeters did you see the Voom display??

First of all Vurbano, let me say that I totally agree with you regarding Compusa. I also hate their return policy; returning something at Compusa is like receiving a simultaneous root canal and rectal exam! :eek: But on the other hand, the traffic that I have seen whenever I have browsed...

I agree Nowhereman, but as I stated earlier I realize that the level of customer service is not necessarily better at BB or CC vs Sears. My point is that there does not appear to be any "synergy" between Voom and Sears. Voom is attempting selling an electronic product, IMHO Sears is not the...

Look, I'm just as frustrated as many of you regarding Voom's ongoing issues. However, these are the barriers that must be overcome when starting up a new company. If you are tired of waiting for the problems to be fixed, then cancel your service and go back to D*, E*, or cable. No one would...

What I cannot understand is why Voom would want to partner with Sears in the first place?? Wouldn't Best Buy or Circuit City have been a better choice than Sears? I'm not saying that the level of customer service is signficantly better at BB or CC vs Sears, but the majority of people...

Conjuror I will be the first to admit that Voom has issues. While it's frustrating, it is to be expected that there are going to be growing pains associated with Voom becoming a mature business entity. So, you either accept the fact that Voom is going through some issues or cancel your...
