no 670 is a 50K watt station that the FCC max. depending on weather and terrain, it hits like 38 states and canada

The 38 states is only at night. Daytime ground wave limits it northern Illinois, southern Wisconsin, northwest Indiana, southwest Michigan and maybe eastern Iowa.

Oline dad,

Thanx for advice.

I was assured the cable connections for box are relatively simple.

Everything else is done remotely by comcast.

My son- the finance and parttime 'puter geek- is my cheap labor backup should dad start flopping on the floor like a carp inside a rowboat

wow I actually get BTN2, BTN3, BTN4, and BTN5. Maybe I'll get to see the game after all.

yeah, I dont know how far hes he's going. I just know its the highest power thats allowed. And radio always travels farther at night, plus if its overcast that will also help push the signal.

Sounds like not many headed out to West Lafayette for this one.

Got an extra ticket(free) and a way to minimize(or eliminate) travel costs, then I am there.

Btw, you better give us good weather for the game.

Add three more.

ill be at the game (in my mind)

which BTN # is it on? I may miss the game but would like to record it. All it says under the descriptions of BTN2-5 is basically "College Football".

I think you said you have Comcast. From an earlier post:

12:00 PM (ET) / 11:00 AM (CT)
EASTERN MICHIGAN VS. MICHIGAN: channel 67 or 256 (HD)
NORTHERN ILLINOIS VS. PURDUE: channel 692
TEMPLE VS. PENN STATE: channel 693
WOFFORD VS. WISCONSIN: channel 694

I have Time Warner...I have channels listed as BTN, BTN2, BTN3, BTN4, BTN5...any idea which it is? This **** is confusing haha

For anyone who only gets the one BTN channel like me, they'll be replaying the NIU/Perdue game at 8 AM on Sunday.

Plus 400 of Chandler's friends and I'm sure NIU will be well represented, as always.
