Is anyone getting anything out there? I had a very pixelated picture for the start of the game and a 35% signal. I then lost the picture completely and the signal was bouncing all over the place from 0 to 35 to90 and back but never received the picture again. This is a joke. I have the system the siouxshop sells and can't get anything. Best college facility in the nation with state of the art electronics in it an all we get is bushleague results. I have several Sioux friends here in Iowa that I would love to ask over to watch the games but it is so hit and miss this year it just isn't worth it. Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have a 89% signal on the Chinese channels BTW. Maybe we could hire one of them to go to the Ralph and show them how to run all those fancy bells and whistles they have over there.

Same thing here in Iowa last night. Usually get around a 38 on quality and lose the picture at 34. Had as high as 48 last night for most of the game but it did drop into the 30's again near the end of the game. Anyone else notice a drop near the end of the 3rd period?? Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Clear as a bell over me in Iowa but still a low quality of 30% - 38%. It started going bad at anythig less than 36%. Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Had one freeze up in the second, other than that I was at 37 or 38 all night. Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Had 38 all night except towards the end of the 2nd where it dropped to 35 and started to pixelate but it only lasted for 2-3 minutes and then back to 38. Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man, Vanelli get beat worse every time I watch that. Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, after spending the time to read all the way through this thread I can come to only one conclusion....... THE SKY IS FALLING, THE SKY IS FALLING Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mine looks like crap at 35% (Satworks 3618). Why is there so much trouble this year. Something sure seems bush league about all this. Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not getting anything either. I was able to get the games last year but not tonight. I'm not even getting the CCTV channels tonight. I had them last week when I checked out the system and they were fine. This afternoon they were there but no pic/sound. Now they don't even come up after the blind scan.

What mascot? Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I played in the band back in the early 80's and remember doing the Fight on Sioux thing. When everyone in the rink would clap along and then explode when the team came out was awsome. I couldn't belive they not only gave me a ticket for the game but also $10. I would have played for free, well for a ticket anyway. The best part was that after 2 years I transfered to a different school but was still able to walk in with the other band members as long as I had my trumpet with me, even without a ticket. They were more worried at the door to check me for a live chicken or a bottle of Windsor in my trumpet case than if I actually had a ticket or not. I was able to do this for an additional 2 years. Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This news just made my labor day weekend!!!! Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does anybody know if I will be able to pull in all the games listed in the schedule on the Ralph site or will I only get the FSSN broadcasts and not the WDAZ ones. Thanks in advance. Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How about West of the Red and East of the Missouri? Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was just watching ESPN NHL2 night and they were showing the highlights to the DU/Main game. Was a little surprised to hear Melrose say after the highlights were done that it was good to send the NC out West once in a while. No, there's no Eastern bias with ESPN. Barry must have had too much oil in the hair tonight. Congrats to Denver. Way to keep it in the WCHA! Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kind of funny that the only MTU players that said they would change college hockey by adding fighting was the goalies. As if they would do much of it. Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Five of us are coming up from IA also. Just doing an up and back on Saturday from Cedar Rapids. Where you coming from WildSioux? Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My picture was crytal clear also and once I was able to find it I never lost it. I was also surprised that the Ralph's email said nothing of a coordinate change this week. Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My coordinates are always a little different from Pete's. I don't know why unless it is cause Pete is in the Cities and I am in Iowa. Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got mine to work by setting the receiver back to the default setings. Basically erasing all the stored channels I think. Did another blind search after that and now it is GAME ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is the game on the satellite? I am not getting it. I have a satworks system and have done several blind searches but still no Sioux.

No sprig, I didn't go crazy. The "it" that I ment I was going to be looking for was the Chinese channels, not the Sioux Illustrated show. I did find 2 Chinese channels (CCTV-4 and CCTV-9) and they were at freq. 11780 and polarity H but the S/R was 20781 not 20760. Are these the channels you (DamStrait and Psb) were refering to? I hope they are because I get a rvery strong signal quality reading of 87-90% Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks DamStrait, I'll be looking for it tonight. Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got the Satwork complete sytem with the ST3618 receiver. Got it mounted and pointed last weekend. Well, it is pointed at something. I could blind search several channels but since the Sioux were not on it would not pick up their channel. Pete told me to look for Freq. 12170, Pol. H and S/R 20760. If I could get that channel then I am pointed in the right direction and will see the Sioux also. I guess the big test will be this Friday. Go Sioux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
