Sorry to hear about your neighborhood. My van was stolen several years ago (found it in Sparks). A very helpless feeling when things are taken from you. (Like Voom) I switched to Dish this week though the local installer ADCO. They did an excellent job. My roof looks like a dish farm...

Deeann....I have the old Philips STB and it's been working fine. It was crashing once a month 6 months ago but since then with the software updates it's has been pretty reliable. And I am able to change channels pretty fast (male trait). If you find a pretty good deal on one of the other sat...

Deeann.....I have been a Surewest sub when they were first Winfirst. When they were Winfirst channel 10 (Christina Mendosa) came our to the home to check out the system which we loved. I have kept them on board because of the bundle package they offer with phone and internet service and as a...

We are pretty quiet!!

Hi Vickyi Thanks Vicki. It's nice to see you are back too. Hope you are a limber person with everything crossed like you have. We may have to wait awhile before we find out what the final outcome. :( The Voom experience has been very pleasurable for me. In fact the gang will be over...

I live over by Arco Arena and was able to get upgraded to the 24" dish. I called Voom and explained everytime it rained i lost the signal on the satellite side and out they came. Very pleased with their service. Still vooming and keeping the fingers crossed that something is figured out to...

This is a follow up to my post on 11-25. Crave Electronics came out to the house when they said they would and replaced my 18" dish with a 24". Now all I have to do is wait for rain and see how it works. Crave was very professional and quick. They sent two men (maybe a trainee). Means more...

We had three rain storms so far this season in Sacramento and all three times I had rain fade. I called customer Service and requested a larger dish and they were very polite and first said that this area was not authorizied for a larger dish, but after throughly explaining the situation they...

I went to the local Arts and Wine festival this weekend (Oct. 9-10) and one of the local home entertainment installers had a booth. They featured VOOM as it's main attraction. There was a large sign with VOOM on it and a large plasma TV displaying VOOM for everyone. I was impressed with their...

Ouch!! No, everything seems to be fine and I was watching till 11pm. All my OTA are coming in very well. I'm in South Natomas and have been having no trouble at all. Check your connections.

Nice job!! Channel is mapped. Sacramento

I checked my system today and Chennel 31 was mapped and it comes in very clear. So now everything comes in fine and the PQ is fantastic. Channels 3, 6, 10, 13, 31, 40, and 58 are there nice and clear.

Great!! Thanks for the information. That is least a start and I know where I stand. My SSQ and OAQ flex between 85 and 90. My Satellite Power is 100 and Off-Air 85. Thanks again.

I guess no one knows!!! 53 of you checked out the thread and didn't answer.

What is the difference between Satellite Signal Quality, Off-Air Signal Quality and Satellite Signal Power/SNR, Off-Air Signal Power/SNR? What is SNR? What should the readings be? :confused:

I am able to get channel 58. It was mapped initially when I was first installed, but I didn't receive it. Several days later channel 58 does did come in. The only local channel I do not get is channel 31 and it isn't mapped. I wrote to get it mapped and hopefully the new software upgrade...

I'm in the Sacramento area and both of channels for ABC are mapped. I'm 25 miles from the towers in Walnut Grove. The problems I have are channels 58 and 31. 58 is mapped but is black. 31 Doesn't show up at all. I have the Stealth antenna. Everything else is fine.

By the way here are some pictures.

The installer (Dan from Crave) came out at 2:35pm and was out of here by 4:15pm. he did a very professional job and was very easy to talk with. I had everything set up to where all he had to do was plug in the STB and put the dish up. I'm getting a signal of 90 to 94 and all but one of the...
