Larger dish... Maybe I'll push for the 30" dish then. It's really annoying to not be able to watch tv everytime it rains. I'm not worried about damaging winds here in NJ. We, typically, don't get them with hurricanes like this. I'm more worried about the rain and flooding. Let's hope we...

Big dish missing... It's very annoying since we're about to get a tropical storm and a hurricane (at least the rains from them) here in the NYC area. It's annoying becuase I know, for the next 2 (or so) days I will be unable to watch Voom since anything more than a slight drizzle kills my...

Antenna person in North Jersey needed Harry: Do you have his contact info? Also, I know I can do a lot of things myself. I've got plenty of access to plenty of good forums. I just don't have the time nor the motivation to do it all myself. I'd rather just pay someone to do it (hopefully)...

Alright, I'm ready to bite the bullet and pay someone to come in and evaluate my situation for OTA reception. Like many people in North Jersey, I do not receive WPIX or any PBS stations. I can, occasionally, receive NBC as well. I want to talk to someone who knows their stuff as far as OTA...

Bigger dish... Honestly, I want the new software and all but it's tough going into the HT to watch a little HD during a rain storm only to find I have no signal. I know all will be better (eventually) with the software and the channels we're missing but these things (or the lack of these...

Don't know if Wilt or someone else at Voom can give us an idea as to when we can expect the upgrade to the larger dish. I live just outside of NYC and, as those who live around here know, we've been experiencing a very wet few days here. Typically, I can deal with the occasional rain fade...

PBS in NYC Area I live in NJ about 10 miles from the transmitters and I cannot receive PBS from NYC--at least most of the time. I've gotten it from time to time but not recently. I cannot receive WNJN because it's in a different direction. I'm not happy about it either since I love Nova. I...

Phone Line Needed Dragon Lady Wrote: "Right now? This very second? It's not necessary. HOWEVER, security sweeps will start and when they do and the box doesn't report back, you chance interupting service. And Pay Per View when it is up and running." I understand this but is there...

Phone Line Issues--Wilt Wilt, I know you've been saying some things have been turned on recently with regards to the phone line. I believe it's also been mentioned (by you and/or dragon_lady) that some people may run into problems if they don't have a phone line connected. This is somewhat...

Why??? Why is it people tend to argue about what they'd pay for something and what they should have to pay for a product/service which isn't even available!!?? Doesn't it seem silly? How about we all wait and see what it'll cost before going ballistic. The Rickster

Wilt- Thanks for the reply. It's nice to know people are listening. I understand they may or may not do what we all want but it's nice to know they're considering what we're asking for. Thanks for the reply on the other questions as well. I can't wait for the new software! The Rickster

Wilt, I know you've said you're close to releasing the new version of software for the stbs. Are they still on track to deliver it very soon? We're all itching for it. Also, I'm sure you've seen the negative comments about the Voom Guy. Can you say whether someone out there (besides...

HOA and dishes I can speak about this from experience as I was the treasurer for my HOA when I lived in a condo. I was one of the first people to bring up putting a dish up for satellite tv. I did a lot of research on the FCC ruling and here is what I learned (basically): 1. The FCC ruling...

Problems viewing NBA Finals in N. NJ Hmm, I wonder if it's something with my setup then. I'm going to have to investigate this further. It's quite annoying as it became totally unwatchable. Thanks. The Rickster

(This happened for Game 4 as well) I was wondering if anyone in Northern NJ has been experiencing problems with ABC. During the second half last night and the other night the picture kept breaking up, and I'd get the, "There is no signal on channel 7.1..." message. I checked my signals and the...

Kill him...NOW!! Yes, please count my vote for getting rid of him. I HATE this kind of stuff!!! The Rickster

RSNs I would love to see RSNs, too. I know this will bring subscribers. Moov, Ultra, Auction, etc.? Well, I don't think anyone is signing up because of these channels. Honestly, I've heard all of the arguments for and against Moov and I just don't get it. I understand it's an eye candy...

NY OTA Problems Thanks Joe and others. I thought I was getting a little slap happy since I just KNEW I had gotten PBS before. So it looks as though we're outta luck for PBS in Northern NJ for a while? Anyone know if the new combiner will help solve this? PBS is the ONLY OTA channel I really...

I've not had a chance to REALLY sit down and troubleshoot this so I don't have all of the answers but I'm having issues with receiving some channels OTA out of NYC. Of course, can't get WPIX and NBC (I know, low power, yadda yadda yadda). I can wait until they put up the new combiner or...

Overscan I noticed (the other day) the overscan on HDNews looked better, not perfect but better. I used to not be able to read the names of the cities across the top when they did the weather but I can read them now. Still needs a little tweaking but it's looking better. The Rickster
