WNAX covers a 5 state area and the Jackrabbit Sports Network just got stronger.

Dang dude, you guys have 4 stations covering basketball, while NDSU has only one... xrotatehx

(But there's something like 15 stations covering NDSU football, including a Twin Cities affiliate...)

Twin Cities, wow which station is that?

I think this is a good move, for years and years it was WNAX and that was it. They do have a bid signal 10,000 watts but we missed our Alumni in the Black Hills.

Last year we added a Rapid City affilate late in football season to help reach the Hills. Adding even more new stations is a good thing. xnodx

Looks like it almost gets up to Fargo. I guess Watertown can only go so far north. You need Aberdeen to get on board so they can reach us.

Bison football games can be heard in the Twin cities on KYCR 1570 AM.

WNAX is a good station. I listen to the Jacks all the time on the old 570. I guess the network expansion doesnt affect me but its good to see them growing.

There's little of SD that won't have the opportunity to catch Jackrabbit football. That's another example that SDSU is South Dakota's team.

Ok and with that said still WNAX is king of the upper midwest. They may be your best bet. On a good day I could hear the Jackrabbits in Kansas City when I lived there.

WNAX is a blowtorch. You know what else is a blowtorch?? KDKA in Pittsburgh. On some days, you can hear it from Wisconsin.
