    Anyone else having tuning problems

    same thing here with the guide, and the blank screens. The blank screen thing had been happening for close to a week now I think.

    Guide and menu suddenly very slow

    Anyone else having the same problem? Over the past couple of days, the guide and menu on my box seem to be slow as molasses suddenly. Is it just me?

    Strange OTA problem in cold weather

    I'm in Miami and for some reason my reception for channel 4 gets much worse when the weather gets cold (considering I'm in Miami, I'm talking about when it drops into the 60's or low 70's). The warmer it is, the more consistent, the colder, the less consistent. What happens is I'll be...

    no video on locals suddenly...in miami

    well...it seems to be ok this morning. I don't think the antenna had moved. The "no signal received" thing didn't make sense because audio and video were coming in just fine at that moment. Also, if the antenna moves, I won't get any signal at all. I was getting audio just fine, just no video.

    no video on locals suddenly...in miami

    I would think it's something local too except it's happening on different channels that are completely unrelated. 10-1(abc) and 2-1(pbs) and here's a new one...10 came back for a little bit, then went away again, then came back....after it came back it worked ok for about 15 minutes but now...

    no video on locals suddenly...in miami

    ok, so I'm flipping around my locals and while watching channel 10, at about 10:30 the image froze..the audio was fine though...i switched channels to channel 7, it was ok, I flipped back to 10 and got a black screen and no audio. I then changed to channel 2 and watched it for about five...

    how does voom online work?

    No, here's what happened: They don't have a way to change an address on an account, so what they had to do was cancel my old account and create me as a brand new customer at my new address. They scheduled me as a brand new install and sent someone to my new address to install it. I wasn't...

    how does voom online work?

    No, they didn't charge me because I called to schedule it before they started the $199 thing.

    Yes. That was another minor adventure. Everything finally got resolved though.

    how does voom online work?

    I use it but all I can do is look at the status of my account. Strange thing though, since I moved, they couldn't just change the address so they cancelled my old account and opened up a brand new one, I can't use my old user name on the website since it's still registered to my old account...

    Miami Voomers watching fins game on 4, any problems?

    Flipper you had the freezing problem too? I'm glad it wasn't just me. I had it today during the US open also. It was annoying as hell. I'm not sure what causes it but I have noticed that even though I get a consistent signal strength upwards of 95, every so often it will drop to the 70's for...

    Miami Voomers watching fins game on 4, any problems?

    I turned on the radio and listened to Mandich instead. I did check the signal strength and it was very strange...it would come in at a solid 95-98, but every once in a while it would drop to 75 and that's when it would freeze. I don't know what could be causing this.

    Miami Voomers watching fins game on 4, any problems?

    I'm watching the Dolphins game on channel 4-1 and am getting freezing left and right, the audio level is jumping all over the place, and maybe it's just me but there is no commentary. What happened to the commentators (although this is minor compared to the freezing)???? Anyone else having...

    Suggestions for what to do with dish if Ivan hits??

    True, but channel 6 did leave their digital OTA feed on all the time. I'm hoping they will do it again.

    Suggestions for what to do with dish if Ivan hits??

    It is leased. So basically I should leave it up and hope for the best? My biggest worry is the OTA antenna. I can deal without satellite but I would be lost without being able to watch the news before/during/after the storm(that's assuming I even have a house left to watch it in). I went...

    Suggestions for what to do with dish if Ivan hits??

    My dish made it through Frances, but then again we only got about 40 mph winds with some higher gusts. Ivan the terrible looks like it's coming right for us with winds of 150+. I understand dishes are rated to 120mph winds. Is there any chance my dish won't turn into a flying missile or...

    Newbie questions about new things to come for Voom (36" Dish, New Bird in Oct, etc)

    36" dish is kinda big. Any other option for those of us who have a HOA that won't allow a dish that big?!?!?!?!

    Just moved...issues with reinstall and question about antenna

    nah..the batwing I have was from my last install at my old house. the box for that is long gone. If someone has a picture though that would help. I've found pictures and drawings on the net but for some reason neither one seems to be what I have. I was surprised that my terk (which both...

    Just moved...issues with reinstall and question about antenna

    Update on the install and OTA situation. The installation company called me the day after and asked me how it went. I told them the installer didn't seem too willing to work with me for anything I asked so they had him call me and sent him out again yesterday. This time he was more than...

    Antenna inputs on voom box. Which one works??

    I asked this in another thread and got no answer so I'll try and be more detailed about it here. I can't use the outdoor antenna so I'm looking for other options. Now, on the back of my voom box I have two different antenna inputs. Assuming we are looking at the box from the back, one of...
