I picked up 870 last night for the Saints game..., in Dallas!

Bama is a day game, and you can't pick up 870 during the day from The Woodlands

Methuselah LSU Fan River Parishes, brah Member since Jan 2005 4812 posts	re: Texas Radio with LSU football (Posted on 11/3/09 at 12:39 p.m. to LoneStarTiger) Couple of thoughts, Kind of reaching with these but what the heck: 1) I think that the very first channel on most FM radio dials (87.7 or something like that) usually catches one of the local t.v. stations. The local one is either channel 3 or 6 out of New Orleans IIRC. Neither of these are CBS stations, but you never know. The ones in the area you're driving through might be a CBS station. 2) You can buy one of those radios that catch t.v. stations for pretty cheap. Not sure they work well though. 3) If you have unlimited cell minutes,call someone and have them place the phone next to the radio? 3)

ithad2bme LSU Fan Houston transplant from B.R. Member since Sep 2008 42 posts	re: Texas Radio with LSU football (Posted on 11/3/09 at 2:36 p.m. to lsucow) I am southwest of Houston and just tried 870 at 2:30 and it barely comes in, I could hear it but with a lot of static. I listened to the Tulane game the other night and it sounded great, it is at least worth a shot.

TheRoarRestoredInBR LSU Fan Member since Dec 2004 10933 posts	re: Texas Radio with LSU football (Posted on 11/3/09 at 2:38 p.m. to lsucow) When I lived in Austin, I picked up WWL very easily at night once the locals powered down..very clear. Used to listen to the games on Sat night, and Kaare Johnson and Deke's shows on weeknights in early '00s. Day game, Joey you may be SOL? P.S. My friends and I enjoyed meeting you and your lovely lady at the LSU-Ky game in 2007..but there was to be no cowsuit magical ending that day. This post was edited on 11/3 at 2:50 p.m.

With the 2:30pm Central start, the OP is indeed, screwed. Call a friend on your cell and have him put his cell next his radio. [quote]LINK ] This post was edited on 11/3 at 2:43 p.m.

TexasTiger89 LSU Fan Houston, TX Member since Feb 2005 1057 posts	re: Texas Radio with LSU football (Posted on 11/3/09 at 4:57 p.m. to lsucow) 870 becomes clearer at night. I thought it was because they turn up their signal then but whatever it is better at night. I was camping out near Marble Falls two weekends ago and picked up the Auburn game loud and clear like being in New Orleans or Baton Rouge.
