    Last VOOM Statement

    I received my final bill today. As a charter member/owner, I received a $449.99 customer loyalty credit. This completes a total refund on the equipment purchase as a $300 credit was given in March 2004. As my billing date was from 16th to 15th, I was charged for April 16 to April 30 for Va Va...

    Do voom channels look as good...

    I agree they look on par or slightly better. HDNews looks better for sure. In some of the "swirling" graphics there was slight pixelation, but that is in the past tense.

    Ten Million HDTV's in U.S. homes!!! And VOOM only got 40,000 subscribers

    At least your in a city, how about Santa Rosa County, FL?

    Any problems with Voom this morning?

    I had some problems last night on Worldsport and a couple that I can't remember. I'm guessing they are tweaking or readying to transfer to Dish

    No sat signal on 124, 121 in black...

    The same thing happened on Worldsport for awhile. If I were to guess, I would say they were tweaking the signal again, because to my eyes the PQ looks even better, if it did not already.

    Voom Receivers and Dish

    If you don't have a diplexer, have them connect the OTA to your dish receiver

    This shows what is on AMC-6

    You will have to have a Ku LNBF, it's the odd/even thing. But yes it should work assuming the STB is updated

    Hold it! Comparing a program is not the same. The same program on 2 analog ota's do not even look the same. It all depends on how the engineers set it up. Compare channels. HDnet is the exception. It is not on Voom and it cannot be compared. I agree with you that HDnet looks phenomenal...

    No flames from me. This all started this morning when Vurbano was blaming Voom for Wealthtv's poor transmission. I have all the services and can compare them side by side. I've had Voom since 12-07-03 and I had the buggy boxes also. I cannot figure why Rainbow chose Motorola but since the...

    Let's see where do I start. If I told you I've been shot at and you did not believe me, would you want pictures of the slug in mid air on the way and the velocity it was traveling? Or how about this: if someone on probation only verbally admits to using a drug, any drug, is that proof to send...

    I'm working on the camera. It was the fastest I could do as I know you cannot hold you breath that long. My theater is designed for cinema viewing not photography. If you want pictures of the bitrate numbers you'll have to wait. Concerning compression: That is the ONLY way the signal gets...

    The evaluation included the insinuation that Voom was distorting the channel when in fact, it looked the same as what Voom and I were receiving on C-band before Voom uplinked it. I simply disproved that. I do agree that some of the images do not look sharp, but that is due to the source...

    I have 2 screen shots both jpeg--one on 4DTV c-band and one from Voom. The bright face over powers the rest of the image but notice the detail of the flowers behind on right Obviously you have limited satellite reception capabilities. Take a look at the dish farm. And BTW, if you live on a...

    Unless you have a C-band system that can received HD, don't tell me what the original source material looks like. I'm watching Wealth on C-band and Voom at the same time. How about you? Got the equipment?

    The HD original satellite transmission on C-band is the same so it is not Voom's problem. Content is of course personal preference.
