I am in Livermore just about 10 miles east of you..Ive been through several antenna's and so far im with the channel master 4228 8 bay i can get most channels from sutro 259 degrees Fox is the worst or i can point at 3 degrees and get most of sacramento with nbc not coming in to good. Most...

I can make my box lock up by scrolling through the channel guide very fast using the arrow keys just about everytime, on ver 6 it seems i can duplicate it too by just going to the system status menus

Livermore South East of mount diablo

Thanks for all your input in this thread guys... After getting the new software i was well on my way to trouble shooting my OTA problems, all it took was getting one station for me to see it was possible to get a signal. I went thought 3 antennas from voom 1st the stealth then an installer came...

Hey Yankov, My installers were telling me the same thing about Sac would be my only chance...Just went to frys yesterday and replaced the Sensar with a 8 bay 4228 pointed it at sac with some success..a few more channels for the hell of it i pointed it at Sutro (SF) and OMFG i am getting...

Hey Yankov, Did you have any luck getting any OTA from either SF or SAC I am in livermore CA and barly picking up cbs in sac and sometimes getting abc and nbc also in sac.. Havnt given up yet still going to try a few more antennas. But i would be interested to know if you had any success

I was under the assumption that SNR meant signal to noise ratio and the lower it was the better (not power). i don't think the diplexer powers the the antenna but rather is a power passive diplexer that allows you to get the power from the STB i would think that having a separate cable would...

actually after some testing it does seem to be right on target with Off-Air Signal Quality found in the System Status menu

I have no doubt it is a different scale the system status menu and the installer menu are now very different Under the system status menu everything looks the same where u can look up your Off Air SQ and Off air power/snr Under the Installer Menu it now has an installation wizard that has Aim...

P.S. I believe (but I need to verify this statement) that the new OTA scanning software does not delete your current mapping but only adds to it whatever you found in the path of the antenna. As I said I need to verify this. Correct...

I have a channels that sit solid at 75-79 that wont lock in, the installer changed my stealth to a Winegard Sensar, we even tried a directional Winegard but unfortunately this was all before i got the new box,i would be interested to see if the directional would have helped me after the new...

Yup thats the way it looks to me, If your mapped to it (its in your programming guide) I'm sure you'll be able to tune it...BUT if not the OTA scanner will not add it to your List of channels unless it is at 80 or better. The new software/firmware also has an option to aim OTA so you can...

Got a service call today for an antenna upgrade...after two other antenna's and no luck we were about to give up and went on to an unrelated problem with a diplexer in my 2nd room, The tech brought in a new STB cause it had a diplexer that you slap on the back of the box, due to reading other...

my installer was on the phone trying to activate my box until it got dark outside..i finnaly told him to take off and just give me the phone and activated it myself.

I apologized for making a dup post soon after posting.. and yup looks like it

Yesir from San Francisco to Sacramento

As far as i know they are installing the Channel Master Stealth, I was installed 3 weeks ago in California and thats what i got... i think its something like 30 miles UHF and 40 VHF i could have those back wards...supposedly you can have the preamp installed inside of it as well to boost those...

The thing is i really do want to be a voom customer I love their HD compared to my cable service and i am basically trying out this service (voom) I have even hung on to my old cable service just in case and the fact that my wife would kill me if she couldnt watch some of the programming offered...

Thanks alot i will email wilt asap

ok ok...after reading through the forums i see that this is a duplicate post and nobody really knows....sorry bout that.. Still cant figure why that if my installer knows that i should be mapped for a different area (Sacramento) instead of San Francisco why they dont send it out properly...

Just checking if anyone knows of an ETA on the new software that will let you scan for OTA channels It's been 3 weeks and voom still won't remap me so that i can receive OTA channels Absoluly Zero effort to get my OTA chans working from installation date till present They got 1 more week...
