Title: Watch the other games on ALT, not ESPNU
Post by: jtwcornell91 on March 26, 2005, 11:43:14 AM
Don't know if DirecTV actually collects this information, but just in case, we should watch Altitude rather than ESPNU for the games that are on both, to show our gratitude to Altitude for being the only network to pick up our game.

Also because CSTV > ESPNU

So in looking at Direct TV here in Washington DC - Altitude appears to be showing the midwest regional final in Michigan rather than the Cornell game.... am I missing something?

Someone help me out.

Altitude *alternate* is showing the Cornell game. If you get Altitude (644 on DirecTV) you should be getting Altitude alternate on 658, when it has programming to show - i.e. Harvard/UNH at 3:30 and Cornell/OSU at 6.

Similar on Dish Network, but different channel numbers. I believe Altitude Alternate on Dish is either 445 or 448.
