I have DirecTV, with WDAZ as one of my local channels. Has anyone else with a FTA set-up noticed that the picture quality is much better on the FTA than DTV? I know last year when games were also on WDAZ, I always fired up the FTA receiver and watched on that because the picture is so much better. Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this.

90% quality and looking good.  1.2m Primestar dish.  I have never seen the replays of a prior game before though, is that new?  Also saw the disclaimer about the private broadcast.  That's new from last year also.

yes the replay thing is new

the disclaimer was up for the football game.

yes it is

The FSSN feed we get is the clean feed...sent up to the satellite

WDAZ would be a feed as such

FSSN feed gets beamed up and back to WDAZ studios

WDAZ gets beamed up and back to DirecTV & Dish

Signal gets compressed and bemed back to your receiver

Thats 2 extra runs for Dish/Direct.

Dish/Direct compress 10-12 channels per transponder...The FSSN feed would be compared to probably 2 :D

the prething audio is low but the game was nice and loud

They are using left audio only

74 SOLID here in Minneapolis...76cm dish and .3

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Iceberg, (or anyone else with similar equipment)

what are you getting for a signal on the WDSU station?--or any other "everyday" station? I installed the Xtreme .3 last night (with 75cm dish, and satworks 3618) and the best I could pull in was a 44. (an improvement of 5 points) from when I started. Seeing as the weather here was perfect (in MSP) and thats the best I could get, I'd like to compare to someone else's reception of the same thing. I guess 5 points is a 12% improvement and I would have LOVED to have those 5 points on last season.

Marff (Im in MSP too)

For the Sioux, I have a Pansat 1500 which seems to have a wider signal range and can get a 75 solid

The Satworks I have (3688) the signal has been at about 43-44

WDSU is at about a 60 for the Pansat...43 for the Satworks

All 4 games I have had NO issues with signal this year :D

(76cm dish and a .3)

Big weekend on FSSN

Friday's game I guess is at 7:00 (not 7:30)...then the football Saturday at 1 and hockey at 7

Very happy the signal is good this year...making it fun to watch the games and not worry about the signal crapping out :)
