    Warning No WKU TV broadcast in Ruston???

    According to @LaTechReport, CW Monroe will not be airing the game, so by extension, Ruston will not be getting the game.

    KPXJ in Shreveport will be airing the game, but I don't think it's on Cable in Ruston. You may be able to get it by antenna.

    The game will be streaming online, but it should be on TV in Ruston (home of Louisiana Tech BTW).

    Does anyone know if the local access channel in Ruston is getting the game? I know they used to when I was there?

    Seems like it would be pretty easy to find pro-Tech advertisers to cover the costs on CW in Monroe or locally.

    I'd do some official complaining, but I dont live in Ruston anymore (and never had cable when I did).

    But that is ridiculous. Simple stuff, guys.

    Meanwhile Monroe/West Monroe will have at least 6 OTA stations running 20 plus year old reruns on saturday. They will be showing PSAs during commercial breaks.

    I encourage Shreveport, Bossier & Minden Tech supporters contact KTBS/KPXJ and let them know how much we appreciate them putting this on the air. We get KPXJ in Minden on Suddenlink so we'll have the game!

    We go from the do right two weeks ago with the NSU broadcast to this week's irregularity.

    Can't we just be regular on our TV programming policy?

    PS-We should own the CW every Saturday we're not on CBS or ESPN.

    If you have internet: Download the Pluto app to your tablet or smart phone. Stadium channel 207 on the Pluto channel guide is reported to carry this game, which you can stream to a smart TV or cast to a "non-smart" TV via Chromecast other devices. I understand that the Pluto app can also be downloaded direct to smart TVs. If this old dog can do it, 'most anyone can!

    I think so, too, but I think our people have to be proactive. Go see the station manager with a list of the prospective advertisers in your hand.

    They have to know the cost to purchase the air time/broadcast. Tech/Learfield should have had advertisers lined up to pay the cost.

    If reports are true that CW Monroe is not showing the game, then it will NOT air in Ruston as well, unless the local cable provider is getting the game.

    Pluto TV downloaded and it works but no sound. Any hints on why and what to do?

    PS just fixed it by going mute then unmute.

    If anybody does not have an above device, I encourage you to request that the nursing home purchase one.
