Disconneted the box last night and reconnected today. I get the voom screen but that's it. I disconnected my OTA cable (separate cable-not split) from the box and connected it directly to my tv but it won't pull in my locals. This is a very good ($250-$300) antenna that Voom installed. I must be doing something wrong because a good antenna like this surely should pick up my locals. Whether they would pick them up in sd or hd I don't know because I don't know if the local stations send their hd signal to a sat or not.

Thanks for any help. REALLY GONNA MISS VOOM!!!! :river
 
Connect your antenna cable back to the VOOM stb. You should be able to get OTA channels through the VOOM stb.
 
right. If it's a powered antenna it will need to get its power from the voom box. (I think)

yeah you should hook it back to the voom box you need power going back to your antenna or you will need a power supply connected to get power to the antenna if you want to bypass the voom box.
