    Fox-HD: NFL Football Game at 4pm EST

    Aarrgghh!!!!! I CAN'T TAKE IT!!!!! I just rebooted and still having the same problem. Figured I'd call Voom and see if they might have an idea. Nothing. They're scheduling a call for me. Doesn't do me any good right now!!! Anyway, I'm trying to get them to give me a bigger dish. The CSR told...

    Fox-HD: NFL Football Game at 4pm EST

    Reboot? Maybe it's worth trying a reboot? I have an off-air signal power of 70+ but the SNR is fluctuating wildly. It's wither high 22s or 23+ or 0. The Rickster

    Fox-HD: NFL Football Game at 4pm EST

    I wish I wish audio was the only thing dropping out. I cannot watch the game at all. It keeps losing the signal overall. I get about 5 seconds of audio/video then the screen freezes and I get nothing for quite some time. Of course, this always happens at the beginning of a play then comes...

    Fox-HD: NFL Football Game at 4pm EST

    Problems from NYW? Sean or other NYers. Are you having the SNR for NYW going from 22/23.x to 0 constantly???? I can't watch the game here becuase this keeps happening. I can't take it!!!!! The Rickster

    Carnivàle, When is it coming back, November?

    What's it about... Well, it's an interesting show. It took me 3 or 4 shows to get into it but here's a try and what it's about: It's about a guy (Ben Hawkins--I believe it's Hawkins) who escapes from prison and does so by hooking up with a carnival which travels throughout the US (and Mexico...

    USA Has arrived !!!

    Love it but... I love the fact Voom is adding more channels but I NEVER watch USA. At least, with TNT, I watched some basketball. I really want to see things like rsns and the Science Channel. The Rickster

    It's Official-Tyson Fight to Air on VOOM Ch. 711-For Free!!! at 9pm EST

    Anyone seen anything? I've not seen any commercials and the Voom website says nothing about this. Anyone seen anything else? I may have some friends over and it would kinda suck if they came over and there was no fight. The Rickster

    Red Sox vs. Yankees: Black out?

    Ben Afleck--what a jerk! Alright, I have to qualify this post. I'm a Yankees fan. However, they interviewed that tool Ben Afleck (sp?) during the game last night. Not only can he not act but he's also a jerk! I mean, it's ok to be a fan but at least talk like you have a clue. He was talking...

    Finally! A use for Moov!

    Size... The set is 55". I used to have a cat who loved to watch the nature shows with me. She would watch it with great interest. She also loved watching hockey. She would try and get the puck. As you can guess, I was less than thrilled about that part! I just hope my son doesn't try and...

    Finally! A use for Moov!

    Yeah Luckily, the tv is in the home theater, which is in the basement. He's in bed by 8-8:30 every night and he rarely comes down with us. We've sort of done this on purpose as I don't want him becoming like so many other kids who are addicted to tv. My wife and I don't really watch all that...

    Finally! A use for Moov!

    Well, I FINALLY found a use for Moov. You know, that boring good-looking bandwidth hog. Anyway, we had my 19 month old son downstairs in the home theater (where I have Voom installed) and my wife flipped through the channels. She saw that Tank HD was on Moov (the only worthwhile thing I've seen...

    Espn-HD: MLB Baseball : 2004 Home Run Derby 8pm EST

    It was bad... I was noticing the same thing about the pq. It was VERY soft. I know some of the cameras were SD but even the HD cameras seemed to be very soft. There were one or two cameras whihc looked good but overall it was bad. The Rickster

    How important is HGTV?

    Well.. My wife likes it but I could care less about it. She can live without it though so we can wait. No big deal. The Rickster

    WPIX-HD: NY Mets vs Philadelphia Phillies 1PM EST

    Mets suck... Mets suck! Mets suck! Mets suck! Er, ah, oops, sorry. Got carried away again. ;) What a game last night! Jeter is the man. He may not have as much talent as others but he sure plays the game the way it's supposed to be played. I was speechless after they won. Reminded me of...

    6/27 Espn-HD: MLB Baseball : New York Mets at New York Yankees 8pm EST

    Not sure I'm not 100% sure but it certainly looked like it was HD. I don't think they were stretching the pic since they don't do that anymore on SD stuff on ESPN HD (it seems). The pq was also better than the normal SD stuff. Last night the game was broadcast in SD via CBS. I didn't watch...

    Espn-HD: MLB Baseball : Anaheim Angels at Cleveland Indians 8pm EST

    Go Yanks! Let's go Yanks!!! 1918....1918...1918... Ahem, er ah, alright. Sorry about that. Got a little carried away there. :) Sean, So you're saying I may not be able to watch the Yanks in HD because it's on YES, which I CANNOT watch on Voom???? That sucks... The Rickster

    6/27 Espn-HD: MLB Baseball : New York Mets at New York Yankees 8pm EST

    Little blue... I noticed the center field camera seemed to have its whitepoint off or something. There was a slight blue tint. I didn't notice it from any other camera. Also, did you notice they showed HD highlights of the earlier game? Did WCBS broadcast it in HD? The Rickster

    Espn-HD: MLB Baseball : New York Yankees at Los Angeles Dodgers 8pm EST

    The Yankees are bad for baseball...yeah right... But the Yankees are bad for baseball. Funny, this seems to happen whenever the Yanks go on the road. They can't be too bad for baseball since they put butts in the seats. btw, that pitch was outside to Matsui. Close or not, it was NOT a...

    Espn-HD: MLB Baseball : New York Yankees at Los Angeles Dodgers 8pm EST

    Can't win 'em all... Hey, we can't win 'em all. Even the best teams lose games. Still have the best record in baseball. Still the team to beat. Hmm, wouldn't it be great if the Yankees were to be the team which gave Gagne his first blown save in a couple of years. Almost makes me hope...

    ABC-HD: NBA Basketball - Piston vs Lakers Game 5 Finals 8:30pm EST

    Well... Although I really don't care who wins this series since I'm more of a college basketball fan, I must say I am tired of hearing what great defense Detroit is playing. They're hardly playing GREAT defense. They're playing very good defense. What I saw last night--and the whole series for...

    Any Request Options For Monsters HD?

    Reanimator Hmm, which scene would you be referring to? ;) I'd love to see any of the 50s Sci-Fi movies. I have always loved them! How about showing the Twilight Zone and Outer Limits? I'd guess the royalties would be high. The Rickster

    ABC-HD: NBA Basketball - Piston vs Lakers Game 5 Finals 8:30pm EST

    Don't get excited... Remember, all throughout the playoffs the Lakers have had one or two games in each series where they didn't show up. Last night was one of those games. One thing which struck me as odd is the interview with Bryant at halftime. He kept saying how they weren't prepared for...

    HBO-HD East: The Sopranos : All Due Respect 9PM EST (Season Finale)

    It's all good...well almost... I enjoyed last night's episode although not as much as the last one. It seems Tony has finally learned something about himself and how to deal with it. Since most of his problems stemmed from his guilt over leaving his cousin holding the ball (so to say) I'm...

    HDN adjusted for overscan?

    I agree... It is a lot better. I know there were some raging debates about the whole overscan issue. There's also an issue on WorldSport. People with plasmas and front projectors don't seem to have the overscan issue. All others do. You can typically can adjust for overscan on most sets but...
