    VOOM in Canada

    I was kind of surprised I didn't find this in the HD programming discussion. Last month (Oct. 2006) Canada's ExpressVu began carrying VOOM's Equator-HD and Rave-HD. Since I defected to "Canada" when the VOOM satellite service closed it's doors I was very excited to see some of the VOOM...

    Woah what was that BEV?

    Was BEV having problems yesterday evening? About 20 minutes into Dr. Who on CBC Toronto all the TPs at 91w droped to 0. About 5 minutes later all the TPs on 82w went down to 0. Then 30 minutes later everything returned to normal. Anyone have something similar yesterday? Where does BEV uplink...

    Help with BEV 6100 needed

    My BEV 6100 has been acting up. My favorite list name has been replaced with blocks and odd characters. When I try to recreate the list it won't save the channels or the list name and says the list has no channels. This happens no matter which list I try to save. I had this happen once before...

    Ecology and CRKT on Bev

    What's up with Ecology on ch.608? It just shows a blank screen. What is CRKT on ch.703? It also shows a blank screen and lists "off air" all the time.

    What was the last thing you watched?

    I watched Driftwood on World Cinema then fliped around for the final 20 minutes until the "no signal" message came on :(

    Confused about Comcast

    Comcast has to have the most confusing website. I don't actually know what is available. Is HD service available everywhere? When I look at their What's In My Area section, one page says they have HDTV and the channels on my system are: 202-ESPN-HD 205-Discovery-HD 206-iN Demand...

    Parental Locks Help Needed

    I could slap myself. I don't know what I pushed, but my Parental Controls are locked and I can't get into the menus. Yesterday when I turned my receiver on the locks were on (even though I didn't turn the locks on) so I put in my four digit code 0000 (real original huh?) and the locks went away...

    AMC-6 (AKA Rainbow-2) Stats

    KU-Band is much different than C-Band. All KU-FSS sats have the same bandwidth, but the configuration of the bandwidth varies with some using 24TPs, 32TPs, 16TPs, and different combinations of bandwiths for TPs. With so much misinformation floating around, here are the stats of AMC-6 at 72w...

    While we wait for the transfer of VOOM what are you doing to pass the time?

    Besides visiting satelliteguys, watching VOOM, or actually working what are you doing while we wait for Rainbow DBS to be transfered to VOOM LLC? Vicki got me thinking about that whe she told me she was trying to get back to a normal life :) For the past week I've been redecorating my...

    All Available HD Channels Information

    There have been some questions as to what is available in HDTV that VOOM could carry. Here is everything currently available and if it currently carried by VOOM. I'll make changes to the list when channels appear. Since Encore-HD is ceasing transmission it doesn't appear on the list. This...

    BEV 82w channels question

    With VOOM on the possible demise I find myself seriously looking at BEV and subbing to the Digital Standard, Variety 3 pack, and HDTV Value Pack. I plan to just point at 82w. A couple of the nets have a star next to them in the brochure that says "Channels May Vary By Region." I am...

    AntennaWeb may not be accurate

    In my constant quest to have my channel map changed to Pittsburgh with no results I once again called VOOM. The CSR and I discoved that AntennaWeb has my house in the wrong place by 1/2 mile and even when placed in the right spot the Pittsburgh channels I actually receive don't show up and the...

    Weird System Status Changes

    Is VOOM getting ready to do something? No one else has posted anything that I can find, but earlier this evening and again now I noticed data changing in the System Status. The EMM Providers that was always 1080, 55d has changed several times in the past few hours to: 1080, 553 1080, 556...

    Pittsburgh-West (including Wheeling/Steubenville) Voomers

    Anyone else in the area with Voom, or am I the first one? BTW I'm in Wheeling. My install is scheduled for Tuesday (6/8/04) with Marshman M. F. Services in Cannonsburg. My only concern at this point is the mapping of the local channels. KDKA-DT doesn't remap itself to ch.2, but uses it's DTV...
