OTA signal sensitivity on VOOM

[jimboeau]

Hi all.....

I was just wondering how sensitive the OTA tuner is on VOOM for picking up distant signals. I have read elsewhere that Zenith was supposed to have the best stb for picking up stations. How does the VOOM box compare to say Zenith or Samsung in this regard? Anybody done a side by side comparison? Thanks for your help.

I have comapred my Samsung TS160, (D* stb) OTA with that of VOOM's, and I would have to say that the VOOM stb wins in this department.I have 2 channels, (among many OTA digitals) that go in and out from time to time with the Samsung, and with VOOM, one never goes out, while the other has only been out twice since I've had it. It used to frustrate me while watching thru the samsung, but those frustrations are gone with VOOM's. Now if VOOM can only get their Satellite service right, it would be great!

I was hoping that was the case. Is the signal strength meter 1 - 100?

Yes, the signal strength meter range is 0-100.
