    Sean - is there anyway to get extra OTA channels mapped to my receiver? They do not show up on zap2it, but on Antennaweb.org it says they are only 8.8 miles from my house. I should be able to get them. Zip Code: 46530 Stations: WNIT-DT 34.1 WNIT 34 WMWB-LP 25 WBND-LP 57

    Sean - I'm curious, since I also had Adant install mine -- is your installer's name David? He did pretty good with my install.

    My installer said not to "power down" at night but to keep the unit in "standby" so that it could do it's downloads. He said, "If the green icon light is on, it is in standby." I can't find anything that says how to put it into standby mode. Anyone know?

    I have found the same thing tonight. The 1080i works best. My 567w goes a little wacky through DVI when I switch VOOM's output. So, I have to switch away from the DVI input and then back to get it to reset. Tim

    Wait...the system locked. So I held the power button for a few seconds until it went off. When it came back on, the locals now show up in the program guide. However, the entire program guide is still empty. Any way to force it to fill up?

    No locals. An empty program guide. And same channels. Doing it again will help?

    The first 4 channels in the guide are as follows: 0-4 (no info) 0-8 (no info) 0-10 (no info) 8-15 inVOOM (inside VOOM) Then 100 and on up.

    Sean - I called tonight and the guy seemed very unsure and unfamiliar with my issue (local channels). He didn't even know what package I had until I prompted him to pull up my account. He said that he thinks my locals will download tonight in the middle of the night, but seemed like he was guessing.

    1080i or 720p ? Just installed today. I have a Samsung HLN567w which converts everything to 720p. Therefore, should I change the VOOM receiver to 720p so the TV doesn't have to convert? Or, should I leave at 1080i and let the TV convert? (It's my understanding that the Red button will cycle...

    VOOM Installations

    Does anyone know... My install just finished and it went well. Everything seems to be working EXCEPT that my locals do not appear. My installer said they don't appear to be mapped to the receiver. He said to wait 24 hours and see if they show up, and if not to call Voom. I think he just...

    Sean - Adant just finished by install. No diplexer. Ran 4 separate lines.

    My install is about half done, and is going well. He arrived at 12:40pm and it is now 2:00pm. Get this...he felt bad about having to reschedule, and offered to run all 4 lines now "just in case I need them in the future." I took him up on it. I helped him run the wires in the house since I...

    Update on my install... 2/24 Ordered and set up install for 3/2 2/27 As suggested on this forum, called Voom to find out installer. They couldn't find me by phone number, and finally figured out that both phone numbers entered for my account were entered wrong. They corrected and told me my...

    Thanks Sean. But I guess I'm still not sure the answer to the original question. If I have a Dish 500 pointing at 110/119 currently on my roof pointing just over the treeline - will the Voom pointing at 61.5 be aiming lower than that? I'm in northern Indiana on the Michigan border.

    Hmmm. I just have the Dish 500, no other dish. That's 110 and 119, right?

    I was scheduled for this afternoon, but they had to call and cancel due to a truck break-down. Re-scheduled for Thursday morning 3/4. Regarding line-of-sight, since I have Dish 500 which shoots just over the top of my trees, will I be okay with VOOM also? Do they shoot at the same satellite...

    My install is tomorrow. When I called ahead I asked about two lines vs. diplexer. He said, "We always run two lines if we can. We only use a diplexer if we have to."

    It's good advice. My install is set up for 3/2. I just called Installs, Inc., and they couldn't find my information. Come to find out they entered BOTH of my phone numbers incorrectly. They finally found me by name and zip code and gave me the installer's name (Adant Wireless). When I called...

    My install is on Tuesday 3/2. A couple of questions... How many cables do they run from the roof to the receivers? Are the installers generally flexible in how and where these are run?
