Super-DMA is being released!

[heels98]

I am in the Greenville/Spartanburg SC market and can tune in to all of the Charlotte NC stations better than my own. Please give me the guide data for them!

I'm in Macon.Ga. market (#122, some sites are now listing it as #119, I suppose the FCC has recently updated the markets, Voom still has 0122 listed). It would be great to get Atlanta (#9) and Columbus,Ga. (#125) markets...
Thanks Ilya...

P.S. WGXA DT 16 (analog 24) does not recieve any programming information. It currently has no HD, only SD. I don't know if this is why or maybe it's just not mapped in. Thanks for any help....

Well, so far nothing new here in Orlando, FL. I rebooted one STB and did a re-scan on the other. Still receiving Tampa stations, but no guide info. Below is the information for the Tampa stations from AntennaWeb:

WFLA 8 NBC TAMPA FL 218° 57.3 8
WFTS 28 ABC TAMPA FL 218° 57.3 28
WTVT 13 FOX TAMPA FL 216° 57.9 13

I am also receiving the following neighboring stations from other areas:

WMOR 32 IND LAKELAND FL 199° 49.7 32
WOPX 56 PAX MELBOURNE FL 133° 48.4 56

The following information has also remained unchanged:
HAL Version: 00.07.37
Guide Version: 20.02.08
Off-Air Map: 0020

Chicago Illinois, 3rd largest city in the United States...

Can WE get something early on for a change??

NoT whining, but we always seem to get any upgrades, towards the end of the road..
Hey Voom Engineers, how about giving Chicago the Super DMA NOW!!

Thanks guys!

Phoenix

Phoenix, AZ (DMA #16) I'm getting very strong signals from Tucson, AZ.

RPacion,

Rescanning my channelstoday, I get KTTU 18 (UPN) from Tucson, but that's it. What other startions are you getting?

Jon

Erie Pa. DMA for Buffalo and Cleveland. Will Canadian areas be available to add to US Cities such as Toronto or London?

Hi Jon,
With today's rain, I'm also only getting KTTU from Tucson.
Normally I get the following Tucson digitals:
KVOA NBC 4.1-4.2 (rf 23)
KUAT PBS 6.1-6.5 (rf 30)
KMSB FOX 11.1 (rf 25) - very rarely though
KOLD CBS 13.1 (rf 32)
KTTU UPN 18.1 (rf 19)
KUVE Tele 46.1 (rf 47)

What is the current state of the update?

 

[SpeedyG]

An update on Super-DMA mapping in Orlando:

I am now getting guide info for a portion of neighboring stations:
WFLA 8 NBC TAMPA FL 218° 57.3 8
WFTS 28 ABC TAMPA FL 218° 57.3 28

I am still not receiving any guide info for the following stations:
WTVT 13 FOX TAMPA FL 216° 57.9 13
WMOR 32 IND LAKELAND FL 199° 49.7 32
WOPX 56 PAX MELBOURNE FL 133° 48.4 56


My OTA map has remained at 0020. I am assuming this will not change. To get the new guide info, I had to reboot my STB. The other STB has not been rebooted and still does not have the new guide info.

Looks like it is starting to happen!!

Super-DMA is being released

I'm with WASE4711...don't forget the Midwest folks.

Throw Eastern Iowa in the request game / Iowa City-Cedar Rapids/Quad Cities would be nice.


Take care,
Dave

The new plan is to start the Super-DMA rollout on Monday 02/21/2005 and initially do only one DMA per day for the first week - then crank it up to 10 a day if all look good.

Ok, today is Thursday...which three DMAs received the Super-DMA map this week?

 

[d151b]

I'm in the Dallas area also. I don't think that we will get any more stations with the Super-Dma. There are no other major metro areas near us, unless you count Sherman. I'm in McKinney and I don't pick up the Sherman station. I've tried to manually tune it and I can't get a strong enough signal.

we should be able to get ft.worth stations, and a few others. i live just east of denton and can pick up kxii 12(sherman,dennison,durant) it only shows about half of the time though.

Pittsburgh received the Super-DMA today and it is full of mistakes

 

[gutter]

This sounds as if it going to be a long and dirty job getting it right for VOOM.

 

[bryan27]

Gutter, I knew Pittsburgh would be a problem since the DMA covers 3 states, neighboring DMAs are so close you'll hit one spitting in your back yard. 2 stations actually in the DMA and fully licensed didn't get on the Super-DMA map, and it goes on..... I posted it all to http://www.satelliteguys.us/showthread.php?t=47525

 

[Plasmata]

How can you tell if you received the super-dma update?

 

[bryan27]

With the remote push VOOM, then push the green button, then scroll down to Local Channels, push OK. There will be a list of all channels in your local map. If you got the Super-DMA a number of channels will be marked "Hide".

Super DMA Update!

I have update the rollout superdma schedule . It has the next five cities that will have it this week. Keep posting your feedback of channels missing or PG missing in this threadas the engineers are looking at so make the necessary changes.

[APorter]

Here's a vote for Cincinnati/Dayton and some times can pick up Columbus.
