Bingo. In the winter I spend a lot of time out in the shop and catching a game on the radio would be fun. We generally have shit cell phone service around here, plus I am cheap and don't like to burn through our data. Admittedly, I am a casual Bison basketball fan, my days do not revolve around tip off time like they do for football. It would just be nice to have access to Bison basketball coverage. The good news is that I get at least two game a year when they play the Jacks! Bison Football coverage is good though, I wish we could have more game day recap like Nebraska does, yes, I get that on the radio and it goes about 12 hours straight. Obviously that is a different level of fandom and we are just not there yet in statewide coverage. Ideally, it would be awesome to just get a repeater station out here for 1660, Fargo commercials and all.
EZ QB makes a solid point. Perhaps you have not considered how relatively easy it would be to run a cat5 cable out to your shop provided anywhere close to where you have your high speed service. Then, you can either directly connect a wifi device to that, or put in a LAN drop and do whatever you want. This device, for example, would work stellar for this kind of project: https://www.ubnt.com/unifi/unifi-ap-ac-lite/
Yes, some work, but all you have to do is plug the cat 5 cable in your router, trench it out to the shop, and connect and set up that device.....
Hell, if you do this, I'd suggest having wifi, and then also directly connecting a roku TV. You would never get anything done!
Or less techy....but similarly related...Run some speaker wire out to your garage of some sort. Thats what I did when we first bought our house way back. Put a splitter on one of the audio out ports on the computer and ran RCA cable out to the garage into an old receiver that has speakers attached. I guess if your out on the farm the distance to your garage might affect that, but mine is attached so I just ran it through the basement.
I don't care how the vote ended up. They still suck and always will.

Like I said, it's Bison basketball and I am not that hardcore. I will just continue to listen to whatever is on the radio. The thing is, how many others out there are like me outside of the Fargo epacenter? Probably a lot more than you think. Plus, like I said, if I can catch Jacks games on the radio, there is no excuse for NDSU.
Another option is a wireless headset for your computer if your shop isn't too far away. Mine has a range of about 250 feet.
It's OK to not be OK.
I think there is a lot of validity to this. There are some nights when I'm in Kindred and radio stations have already powered down for the night and 1660 (among others) won't even reach those 20 miles. I've heard from my dad 60 miles away that there are days where he doesn't even try because there is no way he's going to get it. I know listening online is where everything is going but I wonder if there is a way to help out those that don't want to use that option.
