New opportunity for Bison athletics on TV?

[BisonTeacher]

DirecTV:

675 (SD)
675-1 (HD)

Do you need sports pack to get the HD channel? When the Wild game was on the alternate channel last week I only got the SD version. Normally I get the regular FSN 668 in HD.

I get the sports pack so I don't know for sure. The sports pack includes all of the Fox sport channels.

No, you do not need the sports pack however if your channel listing does not include the -1 channel you might have to go and look for it under the "all channels" setting in the menu.

Only Thing I see is Who hockey Jan 27th. Zero NDSU basketball in the month of January. Hopefully that will change!

I know what you are saying and I did. The directv logo came up with nothing on. maybe it was just that game that night for some reason was not in HD. even though it said it was on the guide.

I also noticed those of us on Directv have a week of free ESPN college bball gameplan. A lot of the channels say TBD...any chance a bison game makes one of those?

of course cableone hasn't signed up for it yet. they'll wait until 6 months after the channel begins operations and thousands of people have complained before they decide to carry it. it's standard cableone operating procedure.

Did you get the grassroots going in one day to get cable one to broadcast the channel? Looks like it was added.

Direct TV has chosen not to carry the channel all day but for events only. They are not going to use filler and the reason you saw the DTV logo was because there was no event on at that time.

Ummm...but there was an event on at that time...it was the wild hockey game. Is was on the alternate SD channel (675) but not the alternate HD channel (675-1). My question was why was the HD channel not showing the game even though the guide says it was on.

I know on Uverse you don't automatically get all the HD channels. You sometimes have to get a Premium HD pacakge to get the HD version of a channel you get in SD.
