NCAA Tournament on tv

[Hillel Hoffmann]

I'm gonna see if Age can create a directory sticky so that the various locations can be compiled.

Also, be warned that DirecTV's channel 642 is often dark. To check whether a sports bar gets FSN North (both feeds), ask them to tune to FSN North's Minnesota feed (DTV channel 641). If that's lit, they get 'em both.

I unfortunately have neither the time nor the confidence in my understanding of the FSN/DirectTV stuff to be the guy on this, but is someone else taking the lead on Ship of Fools again for NYC viewers?

Like last year, Altitude Sports & Entertainment is stepping up to the plate.  Altitude will show most of the NCAA regional games live, including the Cornell-Colorado College game, which will be on the primary Altitude channel (Channel 410 on Dish and 644 on DirecTV).  <http://www.altitude.tv/news/APNewsDetails.aspx?NID=55>  Altitude will also show the Midwest regional final live on the same channel.

I wouldn't count on it at most sports bars. But if they do get 644, feel free to tune in to say thank you to our good friends at Altitude again.

Okay, I'm lazy.
Is there a full tv schedule posted somewhere? I'd like to catch the Sucks!/Maine game in the early afternoon and probably the rest of regionals over the weekend.

Well, there's this, but it seems inaccurate (or at least behind):

And this only has ESPNU (but that's most of it):

Hillel,

I will rely on you to keep those of us who are less technically savvy to let us know how we can see the CU-CC game in the Philadelphia area.

Thank you,

Denison

Altitude is showing the Maine/Sucks game live.  Some of their other tournament coverage is carried on Altitude 2 (their secondary channel)

The Altitude website is claiming that their primary channel is 611 on Direct and 453 on Dish. Please clarify which is correct.

[DeltaOne81]

Always been on 644 and still is as of right now. Methinks that's a 4/1 numeric keypad typo. Their alternate channel was 658 last year I believe.

Roy, those are the channels for Altitude 2, the alternate feed.  Neither the Cornell-Colorado College game nor the Midwest Regional Final is slated to be on Altitude 2.  The regular Altitude feed is on channel 644 on DirecTV and channel 410 on Dish.

Time Warner channel 26 (Central New York) until the game ends[/quote]Where did you get that TWCNY is carrying this? It's not listed on the NCAA site, nor does the TWCNY programming site have it listed. They still have bowling.:-/ I'd love to be sure that it will be on, but they still haven't responded to my email.

Jim, in my ignorance, I thought that Time Warner in Ithaca was Time Warner Central New York.  I changed my original post to Time Warner (Ithaca area), because that is where we have seen confirmation that the game will be shown on channel 26.  I apologize.

Now many other posts say it will be on in CNY. If doug Logan says so it's true, but I'd like to see it in print.
