Well, not that I have to explain...but I'm not made of money. The second home will some day be a retirement home and purchased now while I have an income to try to pay for it. I'm already paying two electric bills, two insurance bills, two power bills, two property tax bills, etc. on one income...

Interesting. I don't see how using the dvr at two different locations in any manner violates anything Direc should be concerned about. I will activate the account at the secondary home. Won't even bother to suspend the account at the primary home so I'll be paying for two services while...

"No, you would need to activate the receiver on that account, activate DVR services, If im reading you right you have 2 accounts? so you would need to pull that receiver off your home account and add it to the other account every time you went up there, not that Dtv would do that. If you want...

Couple questions as I'm confused... I can't find the "new" policy anywhere on their website. Anyone able to find the policy in writing? I have the bigger dish and a MPEG4 non-dvr receiver at the secondary home. Will the HR20-700 from my primary home function as a dvr at the secondary home that...

I suspend service at will at my secondary home in the mountains. I'm there for four or five days every six weeks or so. I just have it turned on and off every time I'm up there. The automated voice says you can only do it once every twelve months. I just ignore it and get through to a CSR and...

I'm getting the feeling this isn't something I should have asked. I've tried to Google for an answer and haven't found anything directly on point. Some "close" things talk about theft of service. I'm not trying to steal anything. I will pay for all service at both locations. I'm just trying...

I have MPEG4 service at my second place in the mountains but no DVR. Now that they've added the new channels, if I sign up at my primary home in S. Florida and get the HD DVR, can I just take it with me and use it when I'm at the second home in the mountains? If so, what changes do I have to...

I've searched the board for a couple hours now and can't find the old post I'm seeking. Maybe somebody can just answer my question. A little over a year ago someone posted some tier two tech support phone numbers. I think one was for general tech issues and the other was for HD related...

In an over-abundance of caution, I pulled the sat coax line Sunday evening but left the OTA coax running to the box. I noticed last night that even though the sat coax is disconnected the PG was fully updated and accurate. How can that be? Of course, I'm not getting any of the Voom channels...

Guess I helped myself. I'm rather shocked the tax could be this high for something with no governmental service provided. Anyway, from Myflorida gov site: What is the Tax Rate? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In general, the tax includes a...

Guess I found the answer. At least for Florida. I'm rather shocked. Seems awful high for a tax with no government service provided. Anyhow, from the FL gov. site: What is the Tax Rate? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In general, the tax...

Hmmm. Sure doesn't sound right to me. I'll try to find out how this works. :confused:

Little help here. Just reviewed my paper statement for charges from 10/13 - 11/12 and my sales tax doubled. It is now 12.2% of my total bill. I called Voom to complain. Initially that tried to tell me they double-checked and that is correct for Florida. I told them they have to be nuts. 12.2% in...

Well,......just reviewed my paper statement for period 10/13 - 11/12 and my tax more than doubled? What the heck is going on? My tax is now 12.2% of my total bill. Can anyone make any sense out of this for me? Edit: Just called them to complain. Initially they tried to tell me that for my...

Thanks Ilya. It downloaded properly this time and I'm rollin' again.

Thanks. I'll give that a try in a few minutes. Got a typical S. Florida afternoon shower passing by (as opposed to a freakin' hurricane) and I think I'll wait to make sure I've got a good signal. Man was Frances a wild ride for us in West Palm. The south end of the eye came down to Jupiter...

Live in West Palm and lost power for 64 hours. I'm one of the lucky few who have power back so I reinstalled my dish and OTA antenna yesterday. System worked fine yesterday. Ever since 6.20 came out it has shown I'm targeted for it but it never downloaded on its own. Just turned it on and it...

Thanks, but I'm not TVless, just Voomless. Still have cable since it comes with my HOA fees. Plus, iffin' you live in a hurricane area, you own a handheld TV. I think I've got about 40 Double A batteries in a waterproof container. As long as the TV stations are broadcasting, I'll have TV, even...

Well, Voomless in West Palm Beach. Took my dish and antenna down yesterdy morning and they both sit forlornly on the living room floor. Looks like the thing is falling apart, particularly from shear coming in from the SW. East side of the storm is losing a lot of its punch. Flooding is beginning...

Maybe I'm nuts, but my rain fade seems to have improved in the last couple weeks and I haven't changed anything. Still using a 24" dish and we're deep into the rainy season here in South Florida. Wilt told me a month or so ago that they were going to change their signal and it would improve rain...

I am surprised not to find one single post about Lucinda on Sound Stage. She has been around forever and a day - both in writing some major hits for other performers and her own performances. I've been going to concerts since the late 60's and honestly enjoy Lucinda's shows more than most. Of...

Ohhh. Bad boy. I saw your heading and ran downstairs to turn it on. Not there. Yet, anyway. I live in South Florida. While I sure do want Fox Florida, particularly for the Marlins, most of us that are college sports fans want Sunshine Network even more. Fox was listed for a few days in...

Certainly agree it's not normal behavior. My box never did anything like this until the recent download. I'm just going to watch it for a few days and see what happens.

Not in my case. I've got everything running through a top notch UPS and a Brickwall surge protector. I've had power flickers but nothing recently. When it flickers, the TV, STB and audio receiver remain rock solid.

Yeah. I can verify. One morning a day or two after receiving the download the box was on with green sat light when I know I left it in standby the night before. Yesterday morning it was in standby but when I turned it on all I got was the red sat light. Had to do a soft reboot, which means it...
