    Announcing Team for ESPN-HD NFL coverage

    The announcing team of Mike Patrick, Paul McGuire, and Joe Theisman is really beginning to get on my nerves. Generally, they do a good job, but these guys are so lavish in their praise of the players that it makes me ill. During last night's game (Baltimore vs. Indianapolis), Manning threw an...

    As reported in the 'New Promo' sticky in this forum (thanks to Kenstater72 and riffjim4069), there will be a promotion for current customers that will begin on December 1st.

    What's up with Moderators?

    I noticed today that wasch24 is the only moderator listed for the Voom forums. There used to be 6 users listed as moderators. I looked at Sean Mota's profile, and he is an Administrator. Has there been a re-structure in forum moderation, or has general behavior improved with the new forum...

    The Boys of H Company on 601

    I'm really getting to like watching this channel. For anyone who is interested in history from WWII, this movie was very interesting. It is the story of H Company from the 5th Marine Division, and tells the story of the battle for Iwo Jima. The battle lasted for about 3 weeks, and H company...

    Still 5.68 but sparklies are gone

    The software version is still 5.68, and target version is N/A. I used to get sparklies at the top of the small picture in the upper right corner whenever I used the Guide feature, but now they are totally gone. I know I read that sparklies were software related, so it appears that changes...

    I've tried to find information about Siamese cable, but have come up empty. On installation day, I had the TV installer here, and the Voom installer. The TV guy was very knowledgeable, and when I told him Voom was coming out with a PVR later this year, he suggested Siamese cable from the dish...

    $500 for Professional Calibration???

    I'm wondering if professional calibration is really worth 500 bucks. Of course, the TV installer thought I should do it without thinking twice. But I held out, thinking I knew enough to adjust the picture to the way I like it, plus at the time, the Voom equipment swap was looming and I didn't...
