    Goodbye, Charlie. Hello, VOOM!

    While Voom may not be the answer for me, I can certainly tell you that Dish is now out of the question. A little background... I am one of those new and growing HDTV purchasers. I am looking for decent HDTV content as well as the standard SD channels (including CNN AND FoxNews, btw). I was...

    Post dates?

    Thanks Scott. This was really bugging me. I could see the dates if I logged out, but not when logged in. After adjusting those settings in my profile, the problem was solved.

A high power signal will attenuate the same amount as a...

    What does VOOM need to do?

    InHD and HDNet Will Not Be Together for a Long Time It will be a while before InHD and HDNet are together on the same sytem for the following reasons: [list=1]InHD and HDNet are pretty much the same kinds of networks. Not having seen either of them myself, it is my understanding that they...

    SuperDish delayed

    It's the other way around. There is no programming because there is no Superdish (and the means to receive the additional programming). This is just another way of stating what rudolpht was saying.
