TV for Providence game in the chicago area?

[ppp098]

Anyone know if you can get the Providence game on TV in the Chicago area?
Anyway to get WMLW Milwaukee Channel 41 down here?

DIRECTV HAS IT ON THEIR COL. B-BALL PACKAGE

Are these games part of Full Court?

I would imagine that bars with the big dish should be able to pick up the signal if its broadcast on cable systems. Finley Dunne's in Chicago is usually pretty good about getting the game on if its available.

Sometimes signals from Milwaukee stations drift down to Chicago. When I had the giant rooftop antenna I used to occasionally pick up the big channels CBS, NBC, ABC.

I found the greatest thing for MU fans and TV broadcasts.  I travel a lot, will be in NY for the Prov. game.  I bought a TV receiver card for my computer, and downloaded "ORB" software.  This software allows me to log onto my computer from anywhere and watch any channel in my house.  I will be watching the Prov game in NY over the internet.  When I am at home, my son logs into the computer from Ohio and watches the local broadcasts of the MU games.  Too cool!!!!!

Unfortunately, only one person can log onto any computer at a time, so only one can watch from my house.  Find a buddy in Milwaukee who receives the local stations, buy him a $50 computer card, and you are set. 

Some day in the future, ORB will charge for this I am sure, but for now there is no charge.  Even if they charge $10 a month, I am in! 

Works for Packer games also!!

Go MU!!!!!

FWIW, the game is showing up on Fox Sports West for me.  Not sure why they would pick it up, but I think that means I'll be able to see it without blackouts (maybe - crossing my fingers).  It is a full court game though, so if you have full court you'll be all set.

Looks like we'll have to buy the Providence game and then stream Syracuse & UConn games for free online...

I don't think the Providence game is online.   It looks like the online games start on Saturday if you look at the website.

How do you "buy" the Providence game?  If one has Sports Pack do you still have to have the Full Court package?

[LastWarrior]

If you have comcast, you call them and order espn full court for the day at $14.95.

Cool...thanks, I didn't know that was an option.  I wonder if you can do the same thing for DirecTV?

As far as regional sports networks this Sunday's game against Syracuse will be on the MSG Network.

Next Wednesday's game against UConn (for those not attending) is on SNY, SportsNet NY (the Met's station) and for those who live in New England on Fox 61.

I haven't located any regional TV for Providence other than something called Cox Sports?

I've downloaded something to see some Blackhawk home games (for those that don't know, the Hawks don't show home games on TV) called TVU Player.  I'm hoping that either Milwaukee's or Providence's network is on the TVU Player, or else I won't be seeing the game.

I tried Orb.com last night with my 4-year old TV tuner .. wouldn't work.  If someone wants to buy me a new tuner card, I will stream games for them.
