Same here. Upgraded antenna doesn't even say "VOOM"! And, of course, in Seattle we have heavy rain-37 inches a year!-which convinced VOOM we needed the 24"er. Actually, the need is for all the heavy clouds between us and the sat which barely peeks over the Cascade mountains. Still...

Well, TheTimm, if you can't get VOOM here maybe... you can get VOOM in Hell so maybe cutting the coax was a good idea? Still enjoying HDTV under mostly cloudy skies with showers on the way in Seattle, Gill

Yep, same here so I suppose most VOOMers along the West... Coast don't have antennas with VOOM written on them. To bad really as it is very cheap advertising but they were caught with their pants donw on this one as they had assumed 18" would be fine not and had to churn out a bunch...

Welcome back and thanks for the great pics! Now we just need VOOM flags on top of all of the world's highest mountains. Anyone here good with Photoshop? Still enjoying HDTV under lightly raining Seattle skies, Gill

I voted "no" as we had our projection video system over a year BV (Before VOOM) for viewing DVDs. Then we discovered HDTV at Bravo (formerly Premier) A/V and set up a Samsung STB with a Radio Shack antenna and began watching our OTAs. We were already hooked when we received the mailer...

Alright, in pop culture already! Still enjoying HDTV under increasingly cloudy Seattle skies, Gill

"I 'PREY' for her 'SOLE'"? Just whose soles are you... preying upon? Still enjoying HDTV under partly sunny (rain promised!) Seattle skies, Gill

Bryan, you've got to be kidding. If I didn't have... VOOM and the forums what would I do?! Heh, heh. Oh yes, listen to music, read, work in the garden, walk the dog, participate in the community council, eat out, visit the mountains or the seashore. Gads, not enough time to do...

Thanks, Vicki, Made for interesting reading. Sun, sun, sun, all we have is sun but still enjoying HDTV in Seattle, Gill

Hey, Vicki, just did a quick check of the site and... all the ads I could find concerned Dish, Direct and Comcast. Since the ads are created by Google they can be from anyone and the ads will vary by date and time. Initial impression is the site is legit and provides a nice summary of what...

Finally, an article that makes sense! Now if only our rainless Seattle weather did, Gill

Thanks for the morning laugh, bradley! You have been one busy poster around here lately. Still enjoying HDTV under rainless! Seattle skies, Gill

Happy birthday, Teresa! Looks like Vicki knows how to... throw a party for you. Hope you got the day off and didn't have to do any installs but next week hope you have no rest for the wicked! Seattle, Gill

Yes, I think you are right but since it was just an... "upgrade" of the old Seattle Center Colliseum and the Mariners have a new stadium and the Seahawks have a new stadium--think you get the picture! However, still watching HDTV under who needs a stadium to enjoy outdoor sports Seattle...

And here in little ole Seattle in the middle of nowhere one of the headlines in today's The Seattle Times Local News section reads: "City, Sonics scale down proposal for KeyArena". The Sonics "threatened" to leave if they didn't get a $260 million tax subsidy to help rebuild KeyArea. As you can...

Thanks, Vicki, for your post. Since I'm a member of some audiophile forums as well as well as this one and Yahoo/VOOM I've come to the conclusion that there are a number of people who get their "kicks" by doing negative or contrary posts as it gets them a lot of attention. Remember, if I...

This is great news! In The New York Times yet! Still enjoying HDTV under mostly cloudy Seattle skies, Gill

Yes, Costco does have some great deals and... they pay their employees 2X what Walmart does besides having a good medical ins. plan. Yes, just advertising for Costco as we live about 5 miles from their first store. However, the statistics are correct. And, no, I'm not an employee but love...

The founders of the United States of America were scared to death of the rule of the majority. That is why they structured our forum of goverment the way they did. Absolute numbers do not make "it", whatever "it" might be, right. However, still endjoying mindnumbing HDTV (well actually...

"SeattleVoomer1" almost says it all except we had intended just SeattleVoomer but screwed up the first signin. And "Gill" is the real deal. Use "Seattlesatelliter" over on VOOM/Yahoo although started as SeattleVoomer there as well but an infected computer at work wasn't liked by the Yahoo...

Amrhicar770, after all your anguish... just sit back and enjoy VOOM as we are... under cloudy (where did the sun go?) Seattle skies, Gill

Alright, Ilya! Now we have two "highly paid" guys (including Sean, of course) helping us on the VOOM forums. Ilya, you have always had a calming influence on here since I joined in Dec. (?) 2003 and you ask the right questions to get VOOM users on the right road. Thanks again! Still...

with VOOM right now: DirecTV's Last Broadband Gasp 'Spaceway' sats not for broadband DirecTV has announced that the company will be facing a $1.6 billion charge, since they've decided to use their "Spaceway" Ka-band satellites for HDTV and other content, and not broadband service. When the...
