Nope, no HD.
I had an installer put up a good antenna, amp and rotor so that I can get all of the channels (DC & B'More). I'm a Skins fan and 45 just doesn't cut it during football season!

I have multiple TVs as well. Sometime you can still get a signal from a DC station when you are pointed at the Baltimore station. The other choice is to watch the baltimore fox instead.
Usually, tho, we're not watching different OTA channels, but I'm watching a satellite channel and my wife is watching an OTA channel in the other room.

We have had VOOM now for three weeks,all channels were fine (locals)and then when I went to tune to 5 Fox to watch the Nascar race I get the no signal crap,I rebooted the box and re did the channel scan it comes up with a 95 for signal strength but the channel is still a no show.Anyone else have a problem like this and if so were you able to resolve it.We also have D* I switched to that stb and it was fine,I am starting to think that the Moto stb is really bad news.
Thanks I'll give that a try in a few minutes,hopefully that will work.I'll post my results after I give it a try
By the way does anyone have any luck with 20 (UPN) I get a signal of 90 but that has never worked.I thought it worked with the D* stb but when I switched over to it yesterday to watch the Nascar race I noticed that the D* won't pull it either---Thanks
i cant get upn 20 i have a signal strenth of 84. i think everyone is supposed to be able to get it in july 05.
Did the hard boot(unpluged and then pluged it back-20 mins or so) and that worked Fox back up.I hope that they can send an upgrade soon so we don't have these sorts of problems
Baltimore DMA update works great! Now I get all the info for DC & B'more.
Anyone notice Lost wasn't in HD last night on ABC 2? I had to switch over to ABC 7.

USA-DT announced they will be broadcasting the local news in HD starting in Spring. This is great news and I will soon be watching all the local news on Channel 9. http://www.wusatv9.com/news/news_article.aspx?storyid=37637
No idea, but I wonder if they will be using HD Cameras in the field? Either way, this is very good news for us in the DC metro area!

i'm in silver spring and i get no PBS ota - i hope i get mapped to MPT channel 22. it's a bummer. as good a voom programming may be, pbs is still the best. yeah, i'm one of those...
Thanks for the info---PBS is a good channel to watch,some of the programing is great,but i would not want to be stuck with any one channel it's nice to have choices

Well, the map won't help you, I dont think. You'll just get listings for Ch 22. If you cant receive the channel OTA, having the guide info is of no use.

I rebooted my receivers a short while and I'm not seeing PG for the Baltimore stations. Has anyone received the Super-DMA Map yet?
Did anyone receive the Super-DMA map last night? I checked my receivers this morning and nothing had changed.
