I'm curious...since all 21 channels are already running on Rainbow-1 for the Voom subs, why the 10 now, rest later, by Dish?
Not complaining at all...just curious!

Thanks, Scott.Scott Greczkowski said:
What about Voomers with Dishes pointed at 61.5? If we're new customers, I presume we'd get a free Dish, right?
And, also:
You posted this Friday morning... Is this still true? Is Voom going to continue to broadcast Voom21/Voom10 to Voom customers on transponders not used by E*?Scott Greczkowski said:

i am glad we found out about getting the channels first. you got to remember that he was at team summitt.
I used an a/b switch for a year or so to switch between 61.5 and 148... just had to wait on switch check...BFG said:

When my Dish was installed a few weeks ago, the independent installer said I would get a free dish installed at 61.5 if I called and said I wanted "The WB" channel. He said that it was part of the package I already bought but they don't give you the dish unless you ask for it - and actual Dish Network installers would come out to install it. I may try that...

That's exactly what I did to get CBS-HD. The local Spanish channels and a few indy stations were on 61.5 for Philadelphia. It was no trouble at all, and they installed it within the week.

Yeah that's what I did back in January as I figured if it's free it's for me. Got all hardware for nothing and install as well.
Because I purchased a 921 and signed up for the Dish home advantage with 180 pack I also got free HD for 6 months and no commitment.
I thought that was a nice offer.
This was all cool since I was coming from crapy cable but for many years I was a B.U.D. guy.
LOL! Well Im going to waite now Dish is saying you half to pay 100 bucks for a second dish which is stupid. Due to in the future you will not need one once things get on MPEG4 so waste if money and regulations say that Satellite Companys should only need one dish for their Customers. Which is true with the new MPEG4 in the future there is no need for them to do this. But for now I guess they half to do it this way which is stupid since most HD subscribers might half to for a extra dish. Oh one more thing I was told that the Voom HD pack was going to cost a extra $14 so I dont know about the $5 bucks. Either way rates have already gone up once and in the future everyone will or is going to halfto shell money for MPEG4 Receiver so I dont know will half to waite and see. Seems like folks are going to half to shell out more money in the near future.
So is it true that we call the 1800 WOWHDTV number to order these channels. and that they will be available on midnight eastern tonight
The Voom service is shutting down until 3:00AM Sunday EDT, so more like 3:00AM.
I expect a few hours turnaround time to change out encrypters and other details myself and that it'll be more like 6:00am to noon before they'll be broadcasting for E*.
Cheers,
