Goon Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 I know this distinction won't mean much to most people, but officially, the game is NOT being carried by the Fighting Sioux Sports Network (FSSN). It will likely be carried by Midocontinent and broadcast on Channel 23, the usual FSSN channel. You sound like a Lawyer Quote
KEH Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 So from what I hear I should call Polar to see if they are picking up the feed for us folks upstream? Quote
HockeyMom Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 I don't know if this has been posted or not, but here's a link to game coverage this weekend. http://www.uschtv.com/uschtv/ Quote
BigChief Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 Anybody in viewing area have a Slingbox???? It sure looks like this may be the only way to watch these games live in the Twin Cities. I better call my mom in GF to see if she got high speed internet access installed to Sling channel 23. Quote
yzerman19 Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 7>5, You win a free beer from me if you can pull a live game at Joe senser's Quote
WildSioux Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 Anybody in viewing area have a Slingbox???? I have a Slingbox but I don't know if it will be on in Iowa. I have both CSTV and the FTA for FSSN. I guess time will tell if it is going to be on and broadcast to IA either by CSTV on cable or via satellite feed to FTA. Quote
JESUS,family,rutgers Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 As someone firmly stuck in the early 70's, I have to ask--what is a "slingbox." Can I hook it up to my quadrophonic stereo? Can I get one installed in my Pacer? Quote

Can I get one installed in my Pacer? a device to watch tv from anywhwhere really, hooks up to tv and converts to your broadband computer...i have been looking into one of these.... http://us.slingmedia.com/page/home review i found The good: Works with Macs, Windows PCs and Windows Mobile handhelds and cell phones; simple, straightforward setup; no host PC or monthly charges required; decent video quality; easy-to-use viewing software. The bad: No built-in wireless networking support; monopolizes the attached device. The bottom line: If you can't live without your favorite shows, the Sling Media Slingbox is the best way to beam them to any broadband-connected PC or Windows Mobile device in the world. Quote

Can I get one installed in my Pacer? LOL, hmm not sure if you could hook up a quadrophonic stereo to it, not unless it had a/v outputs which I doubt. Sure, you can install anything in a Pacer. Does it have an 8-track player? I am sure you could hook up a harness to that and hook it into the slingbox. Then you would have to buy a satellite or cell phone based internet to sling what you are listening to anywhere in the world to your friends. Ok, actually it is a device to take any audio/visual (cable, satellite, radio, etc...) and "Sling" it across the internet to anyone with a computer and the Slingbox software downloaded to their computer. It takes high speed internet on both sides for it to work. But when it does, it is cool. I watched the Sioux play hockey down in Orlando out by the pool on my fiances computer drinking adult beverages this past fall. Yeah, my fiance thinks it is a bit much to have the FTA satellite hooked into the slingbox watching it anywhere in the world. I have also watched them play at coffee shops. Basically anywhere with wifi works. There have been people watching their home cable on an airplane at 37,000 feet! This is the model I have. I think I am going to get the Pro version so I don't have to switch so much. Slingbox Quote
sieve Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 I have a Slingbox but I don't know if it will be on in Iowa. I have both CSTV and the FTA for FSSN. I guess time will tell if it is going to be on and broadcast to IA either by CSTV on cable or via satellite feed to FTA. If there is no FTA and Sensors (Bloomington) cannot pick it up (I suspect they cannot without FTA and no live FOX feed) then perhaps we could get somone to Sling it and we can play it off a laptop (projected to big screen) at Sensors. Not really that hard to do. Hennesey is great, but will simply not suffice for a regional. Must see TV indeed. Quote

Otherwise we have to listen to the drivel on FSN. Quote
franchise Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 According to my channel guide, FSN will show be a Regional from Grand Forks, ND at 10pm. 2 questions... I have a friend here in Bemidji that gets FSSN. Will he get the game live? All the Midco stuff has me confused. 2nd, is there no webcast? Quote
sieve Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 Hell, broadcast the video and listen to Hennesey! Otherwise we have to listen to the drivel on FSN. Agree. But desperatley need the video feed! Someone in the cable viewing area must have a Slingbox? Quote
Siouxmama Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 Anybody in viewing area have a Slingbox???? Ask Roger Daltrey. I heard that his Momma's got a slingbox that she wears on her chest, and when Daddy comes home he never gets no rest... Quote
SiouxTupa Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 Hell, broadcast the video and listen to Hennesey! Otherwise we have to listen to the drivel on FSN. Unfortunately, that's a bad idea. It messes with your brain. The audio is a second or two ahead of the video. I like listening to him too...but I agree with Sieve...MUST SEE TV! Quote
Ray77 Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 Ask Roger Daltrey. I heard that his Momma's got a slingbox that she wears on her chest, and when Daddy comes home he never gets no rest... Is that cause she's playing all night and the music's all right? Quote
SportsDoc Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 Here's your cable TV coverage info: http://fightingsioux.xosn.com/ViewArticle....p;ATCLID=831855 Quote
squirtcoach Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 In that case, could FSN put it up live on Directv 642? (FSNa) Quote
SiouxTupa Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 Here's your cable TV coverage info: http://fightingsioux.xosn.com/ViewArticle....p;ATCLID=831855 So if I live in Fargo and have Cable One, will channel 44 (which normally pulls these games) have the signal. I know it's a dumb question given the list on that link. However, I need to know if I have to drive to GF to watch it. Quote

LFSPRO Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 The release is great news as the UND - Michigan game will be available live at the "Center of the Universe" - Michigan, ND Quote
nodakvindy Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 Maybe you can all overrun Horace. They have Midco. It would be like the new Zip to Zap. Quote
PCM Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 This list isn't complete. More cities are being added. Quote
