August 9, 2010 at 5:30 PM #588357ybitzParticipant[quote=ocrenter]here’s another good OTA antenna, multi-directional, 65 mile range, you can put this in the attic:
Before buying an antenna, you might want to double check where you live relative to where the transmitter towers are. http://www.tvfool.com is a very useful site that can simulate signal loss based on terrain. A lot of the high gain antenna allow you to pick up weak signal by accepting signal from only a narrow angle of view, which is great if all the transmitters are located in the same general direction, but probably isn’t the case for those living in San Diego.

Ooma is a very interesting product and I’ve had some success and failure in the past with the product. I would actually say that it’s not worth the money unless you plan on paying for top speed with you Inet provider.
I ran it on some standard 10mbps download speeds and it did horrible. I called both the internet provider and Ooma only to tell me that it’s the other person’s fault.
Just pay the extra $10/month and get a higher cell plan in terms of phone! I was pretty bummed on Ooma, especially after paying $200. Also, you’ll see that Ooma is actually not unlimited and that they do have limits (I think something like 4,000 minutes per month).
The best way to get the best deal on TV is threaten your service provider that you are switching or that you can’t afford it. They will set you up nicely. I have Uverse 300 and internet for $99/month. That’s a deal if you ask me.
Always remember that threatening to disconnect works wonders even if you don’t plan on doing so!! It’s like magic.
