  1. I know of some WOW contractors making some pretty decent money, and have been for years. Again, instead of using non-technical descriptions of the problem (try digital breakup, freezing, digital tiling, etc. instead), how about making a simple call to the call center and setting up a trouble call: 1-866-496-9669 It is really easy.
  2. #1: Didn't you tell me you used to be a cable installer (contractor). Obvisously not a very good one #2: You don't have to have a DTA (digital terminal adapter - which is NOT a WOW digital box). If you TV was made in the last few years, it should already have a Clear QAM tuner in it = don't need a DTA #3: WOW is still broadcasting 13 analog channels, meaning any old TV will pick those up #4: Instead of bitching about it, why not set up a service call for your digital breakup issue? Could be wiring in your home (likely), squirrels could have chewed your drop, or some other issue. #5: You don't think there was a reason for the switch over? Perhaps the doubling of the HD lineup? Other things to come THIS YEAR??!! This is from the former Insight door-to-door salesman. Where are all of Insight's JD Power and Associates Awards? That ultra reliable U-verse, lol. And that is a product you HAVE to have a box on every TV, no matter if you have a Clear QAM tuner or not.
  3. How do you get this 2.75% stuff? Points, extreme short term, ??
  4. Yes, because I said "I don't believe any of you since I haven't got an e-mail." FYI, I just got the e-mail, so they must have sent it out to the $9.99 folks first. Looks like I will be dropping the streaming and saving $4/month. LOL, slight. You loose the HD audio 99.9% of the time. And the picture is more than a slight difference, unless it is a larger file - and even then, their crappy compression still won't look as good as something I'd compress at the same file size.
  5. Dear Anthony, If you read all of my post, you would see I'm not on the cheap plan, and speculated that it may not impact me because of this.
  6. PM me your address and I can tell you what is available in your area.
  7. But then you have Blu-ray. And don't say just download it - these uploaders on Torrent and Newsgroup sites do not understand the concept of quality uploads. Pretty much everything is overcompressed using some pretty shitty compression methods, so it looks like hell.
  8. I have received no e-mails from Netflix about this, and just logged into my Netflix account and see nothing on this as well. I have the streaming + 3-discs at a time + Blu-ray package. I pay $25.61 after tax a month...I am not willing to pay any more. I'll drop the streaming before I pay a penny more, but since I am in one of their most expensive packages, perhaps I'm not impacted by this.
  9. How is that car near a 14 second car? Are you as retarded as you act online? Heads/cam/gears should be low 13's with even a shitty driver. I've seen stock LT1's run high 13's with a decent launch (and in good running order). GRN96WS6 ran high 13's on a hot day with a K&N air filter drop in and a short throw shifter at trails.
  10. Power to get through the thick stuff. If your tractor won't get to it, you need some power. This unit is good for small residential stuff. Light weight, easy to carry, but not the power needed to get through anything thick nicely.
  11. Reading is your friend. Nearly brand new != brand new.
  12. TTT, just collecting dust. Cheapest used one on Amazon is $145 shipped. Cheapest new is $220 shipped. $100 is a fair price.
  13. I just noticed I never sold these - $90/firm, as I'd rather not deal with E-bay/Craigslist for some damn gift cards.
  14. Let's get these gone, $40 very firm for the pair. Do not want to seperate.
  15. Here are the specs: http://www.crutchfield.com/S-CpF6mLQnn49/p_20603KM60/Kicker-KM60.html Pulled these out of my Malibu. Both work fine, have some dings in the speaker grills as pictured. http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/226/kickerkm60marine1.jpg http://img607.imageshack.us/img607/235/kickerkm60marine2.jpg http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/1830/kickerkm60marine3.jpg $40
  16. You drive a Neon, and this is likely a high 12-second car with the mods stated. Or do this and run low 8's on an LT1:
  17. It is this exact trimmer: http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_07179120000P?prdNo=17&blockNo=17&blockType=G17#crumbWrapper Has about 2 tanks of gas through it, and runs perfectly. http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/5097/craftsman27cctrimmer1.jpg http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/2271/craftsman27cctrimmer2.jpg Price: $90 FIRM.
  18. TTT, I want this out of my garage. New price: $40.
  19. Then why don't you ask for a service call to fix your issues? There are a number of new things coming this year. All digital + doubling the HD lineup was only part oif it. Kind of a gov't required thing. You should see Time Warner's...it could not be any louder or more intrusive if they tried. PM me your address and phone number, I can likely get you a better price than the call center. You should be able to use the modem you purchased as well.
  20. I ordered new decals for my Malibu, as the previous owner removed all the factory ones. They are vinyl, premasked decals. The bigger one is 6.5" x 36" that is similar to the factory Malibu decal but should be a bit more modern looking. They arrive in the next day or two, and I want to make sure I am installing them RIGHT as I've never done it before. I am installing one on each side of the boat, and a small one for each side of the trailer.
  21. If you like things that are basically legal scams (where you are the one being scammed), it is a great site to use.
  22. Sorry, I want at least a 12 for the boat...weight is not an issue, and actually preferred.
