Multiple DMA's?

[Westbender]

I've read a number of posts referring to "multiple DMA's". How does one get this set up? I can manually scan for other stations in the surrounding areas where I live, but I'm wondering if there's a way to specify DMA's so I can get all the guide info. Anyone have any info on this?

This is what the "Super DMA" is supposed to do but it is not out yet to everyone.

What do you mean "to everyone"? Do some subscribers have it? Or are they beta testers?

Super DMA is in beta test.

If you complain enough you can get VOOM to add additional channels to your box "map". They used to do this when the system was first introduced in 2003 but then they decided it was too much work. The FCC regs are crystal clear on this matter. Your set top box must be able to display all available OTA channels. Any other HD set top box can do it so there is no reason that the VOOM box should have even been launched with the system they have in place.

It should pick up all stations but it doesnt. Why does Voom want to play big brother and prevent us from picking up anything we can?
