As we know D* is moving forward with their new sats and HD programing this year. If they go though with all their moves as planed D* is going to BLOW E*...

    How Long wil the Voom Website Stay Up?

    Since the site address is registered every year or three years and the cost for a basic one-page site on a server is almost nil it could be quite some time. My net cost to a customer is in the single digits for 1-year on the name and 5 simple pages is also in the single digits. I would also...

    Considering TWC...have questions need answers

    The box I had installed on the 28th of April did work. However there are 3 different cables for DVI. One is unique to TW's box. At 80-90 a cable just go with the component wires. I looked at the two views side by side and I would have to say after several people looked at it the component had an...

    jimmykce1 - trying to kill the V* forum?

    To continue on what Vicki is saying. I have not switched yet. I am with TW on a month to month until late June to see what D* is going to do. This VoOm forum seams to be a general forum of what Ex-VoOmer are doing. It is a melding of ideas. A family that does not want to say good bye yet. The...

    Considering TWC...have questions need answers

    I had VoOm hooked up using the DVI and there was no problem before going back to TW. The 3250 model has some issues with the DVI cable. At the cost of those cables if it does not work go with the component wires. You might even like the picture better. -scott

    Any rumors of Voom on DTV?

    If D* can't get VoOm and they do do their own channel lineup, I hope that they follow the VoOm format. The interest specific stations of VoOm are what I believe we all liked most about VoOm. It was simple and fit the mood you/I had at any specific time. -Scott Wonder if anyone setting the...

    E* is now part-owner of Voom 21HD channels

    Might see the amount paid for and/or shares owned of VoOm in the second quarter report for E* or CV but that is 4 mos from now. ugggg... it's so frustrating. Now I see why Chuck pulled his petition over the E-for-Rainbow deal. Come to think of it he back-pedaled real fast over the past few...

    Can the OTA be opened up for all channels?

    Thank you You both confirmed my suspicions. Thank you. I was thinking about getting the second 4 bay to add to the one I have now. It is a signal strength issue. Have the preamp now. The rotor...well thats another issue. See with that the Canada stations (4 of them) in SD/HD will come in. That...

    Did that but there are still some missing. Maybe they are not at the level needed for the box.

    Can the OTA be opened up for all channels?

    At the moment I receive 5 OTA channels. Is there a way to unblock the rest of the channels on the V* box. There are about 12 OTA's that my ant. will pick up. -scott

    Any rumors of Voom on DTV?

    Right on. How can we not wait? If there is a chance and most indicators show D* will take back over and we all know that VoOm-21 should be an option, how can we get locked in to 1 or 2 years with E*? -scott

    Any rumors of Voom on DTV?

    Just remember one thing Reading all your post is killing me. (funny way :) ). Just remember that anything D* will do will have to answer only one question and no other. Will this next move allow us to take the lead back ASAP? If the ideas any of you come up with don't answer that, then it...

    Good deal for E* re-signup

    I had E* disconected on the 21st of Dec 04 so I have to wait until june 21st. They told me I was not a customer and I was not a previous customer yet. oooooooooooooooooooook. Then that make me an E* person in jail? It would cost me $1300.00 to have the equiptment and service. I think I will...

    Any rumors of Voom on DTV?

    Salsadancer...now you are thinking like a marketing rep or VP at D*. It will take time for an idea like fox21 to be created so in the mean time there is only one choice or D* will fall so far behind it will take years to gain the lead again. kind of like AMD and Intel. AMD is just waiting for...

    Any rumors of Voom on DTV?

    Why are you sad? From what I see D* has GREAT customer service is competitive in pricing simple program options, more exclusives, and on the for front of HD. This should wake up the market and put all program carriers in a run to gain HD market share which could reduce pricing in the market too...

    Considering TWC...have questions need answers

    Be Careful! I am not near you but in Rochester NY. However, I went from Dish to V* and back to TW. Have the HD with TW and had V* overlap for 2 days. TW was equal if not an edge better in HD and fairly close in Digital to V*'s non-HD. The reason I went with TW (who I hate for the years of...
