brianvf Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Just so everyone is aware, since the team is leaving for Anchorage tomorrow, the press conference was held today and there's some info on Brad's blog. In short, Jones should be ready to go this weekend, but they aren't sure on Hextall quite yet. Fienhage is the extra dman traveling (of course). Also, VV and Eidsness got player of the week honors.

I'll beat AZSIOUX to it and Jones comes back with a vengeance Friday and scores a hat trick(natural of course) Quote

sprig Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 yep they're on C-Band. Watched most games this year on there 9:30 coach's show 10:00 game time too bad the guys who do the games decide that cranking the audio up to 11 on the meter makes it sound better (you barely need to have the TV up because its so damn loud) To what satellite is GCI uplinked?

Let'sGoHawks! Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 So the game is available on the big dish...do any bars in Grand Forks have the ability to pick this up? All the bars I know of have Dish Network or DirectTV so they won't get the game. Anyone have any ideas??? Quote
squirtcoach Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Has anyone heard if Joe Sensor's will pick it up at either or both restaurants? Quote
Siouxman Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Any places in Fargo that would carry the game? I can make it there from Fergus Falls. Quote
Sioux forever Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Someone said that this was available for free from the Alaska side. That'd be great if they didn't expect us to stay up late to watch it. it didn't look free to me. i looked and it looks like when you sign up you get a monthly bill. you have to set an account number and stuff. if i am wrong please correct me. i would stay up to watch if i can for free.

You have to pay for the audio; video looks free. Quote
BudLight Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Has anyone heard if Joe Sensor's will pick it up at either or both restaurants? I would love to go to a Sensor's to watch a Sioux game! I just drove by the Bloomington one the other day, so now I even know where it is! So someone should let us know, thanks Quote

So someone should let us know, thanks I PM'ed cheesemover to find out if Sensor's has a BUD (Big Ugly Dish) and C band capability. I would guess anyone that lives in the TC, or Fargo, or wherever, should call the establishment to ask if they have C band capability. Still don't know for sure what satellite they would need to point at, nor the frequency. Quote

Still don't know for sure what satellite they would need to point at, nor the frequency. I talked to Cheesemover (John) earlier this week and he does have C band but needs the coordinates/info. I pm'd Iceberg as he seemed to know from an earlier post but haven't heard back from him yet. Icebeeeeeerrrrrgggggggg........? Quote
minnysioux Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 A little off topic...but this is a funny piece written by Jason Bourne, a former UAA player. http://www.thehockeynews.com/articles/2338...ith-hockey.html Quote

Googled and GCI (Anchorage) owns 9 or 10 transponders on the Galaxy 18 (123W) satellite, so, that's a good place to scan if you have C band. No doubt that is where it is, just haven't found frequency yet. Quote
siouxforce19 Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 any word on who made the trip? Everyone except Davidson and Harrington for sure, as I saw both on campus in the last few hours. And LaPoint (but that should be assumed). Word is Hexy made the trip. Quote
morley Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Any places in Fargo that would carry the game? I can make it there from Fergus Falls. Planning on a late night? The games don't start until 10. Quote
