Sioux Fan

SO happy we were able to get the game last night! Wasn't as happy about the outcome though..... My signal was between 40-44% all night. I have found as long as it is above 34%, it comes in clear. I hope this has more to do with The Ralph ramping up power than the weather. We're going to next Saturday's Duluth game, but it would be nice to watch Friday's on TV. I hate getting my hopes up and then nothing!

Hi Pete. So how much do you think it will help to upgrade to a bigger dish (I have a 76cm how, go to a 90cm) and to a universal LNP? I am assuming on the Satwork 3618 system, it's not universal? You said in a previous post you had some dishes for sale. What do you have?

How's the reception going? Any luck? Has it been known to get better latter in the game? Wishful thinking of my part probably...

Can't wait for that!

Hell no! Don't touch it, no!! What do you think you know what you're doing or something??! You must have about 50 feet of snow up there by now!

Same exact, crappy reception here. It cuts in and out. Frustrating!

what radio station? Is anyone listening through the "Live Game Broadcasts" website?

Guess I'll go try the satellite and see if it comes up. I am thinking about heading down to Mankato for tomorrow night's game. We'll see how tonight's goes and how ansy I get to be there.

I to have got a group coming up from the Cities. A couple Bulldog fans in the bunch though. How much is the Hawthorne charging for a room? What about the Comfort Suites? Anyone know the rate off-hand on those?

Am I correct in thinking that this game tonight is NOT on FSSN? I thought no, but then right before I left work I got an email that said yes.

Yes thank you! Printed and ready! Can't wait!

Did you ever get this? I just moved from Colorado to Minneapolis and was never able to watch the coaches show down there due to scheduling conflicts and would like to catch it now. What time is it on?

I know this has been talked about earlier this summer, but in an effort to not go wading through pages of posts I thought I would confirm here. Could someone please confirm that tickets for all games this season go on sale tomorrow at 10am? Is there a limit as to how many tickets one can get for each game? Thanks!!

Hey PSB! Refresh my memory, what would the analog receiver be good for? Oh and our plans did come through and we're in the Cities now, so will be looking for someone to put the dish up very soon. Hmmm, wonder who we should call....

I was going to ask the same thing, about gathering before the games. There are a ton of restaurants/bars around the arena. Carabba's is a popular one. I am in the Springs, so if anyone needs anything, ride, place to stay, directions, etc. just hollor. You can email me at sdverville@aol.com. I think we definitly need to set something up before one of the games though. We have a 5th wheel camper and thought about pulling it into the WA parking lot for a little tail-gating, but something tells me that wouldn't fly. Hmmm, Tinsletown is just across the parking lot, I wonder if they allow such things? I just found out a couple of weeks ago that there is no alcohol served at these things, so we'll have to make due before/after the game. Any other people who know the area have any suggestions?

Oh what the hell! I'm so confused. So it's going to be on FSSN, which I get via satellite, but apparently they are not showing the FSSN on the regular coordinates that they usually do? Don't think I will be trying to move my dish anytime soon. On the up flipside of that. Like someone mentioned, if it's analog most sports bars will be able to get it. Knowing my luck I will drive all the way into town to watch it at a sports bar, they won't be able to get it and it would have been on FSSN (the right one) the whole time!!

You must be in the Springs, I am also and have been to a ton of Tiger games. Their fans drive me up the friggin' wall! Personally I would love to see the Tiggers play UND here to avenge the losses last season, but only if we win! Up 3-0, lose 5-3. The Sioux have a huge following in CO. Remember last year when the tigger fans were doing the GO TIGERS thing from opposite sides of the arena? Sioux fans were substituting SUCKS for GO. I definitely think the SUCKS was louder than the GO, but ya know, I was sitting amongst a bunch of Sioux fans. I don't think the decision to place teams at the WA will come from a ticket selling standpoint as I believe there are only about 200 tickets left. I don't think CC will make it either though, from what I understand they have to win two of the games at the FF and also get some help from other places on the pairwise. I don't know, I guess it is possible. Okay I just read that and I really jumped around from subject to subject. Hope you all can follow. I'm just excited about hockey tonight! I've got to make it to Denver and back first though. Damn traffic better cooperate!!

So it's on satellite, just not the FSSN coordinates, correct? Is the FSSN on G3? The press release says this is on G11. I have the satellite set-up to get FSSN, but I don't think I can switch from G3 to G11. Can anyone confirm this? A bar may be the only option, DARN!

WAY TO GO SIOUX!!! Keep it going through the playoffs and onto Boston!! Don't let up now.

YaneA - Any way for us out-of-towners to get one? I would gladly pay for it. Want to be prepared just in case the Sioux do come here (COS) for the regionals. Don't want to get my hopes up though. Might jinx it.

Ok, I'm confused. This is what I have (the satellite) so if the game is on WDAZ does that mean it is NOT on the FSSN, meaning I would not get it on satellite. If I am thinking correctly if the game is on Midcontinent Cable (ch. 23) that means it will be on the FSSN? I scheduled a ski trip this weekend thinking I would be safe because the Sioux were not at home. Need to know if I need to set the VCR.

I'm in the Springs also, is this game on Adelphia?

Not sure if this is already posted somewhere but it is an interesting article on a topic that has been discussed here numerous times. UND is mentioned. Read it at http://www.thedesertsun.com/news/stories20...206015109.shtml

Thanks PSB, we were getting a little worried! You still got a shirt comin' your way.

Yep, that's what it was! Not sure what my point was, but thanks! I just remember laughing when I heard it was Dora who Smaby took the DQ for, after what Dora had said. He deserved it, Dora that is. Smaby didn't, game DQ for slashing!! Anywho, thanks for the info. Now, go get 'um boys! Is it Friday yet?
