Westwood One (NFL Conference Games) east / north east of Dallas?

J

jimcameron

I'm going to be driving across northeast Texas tomorrow during the NFL football games. I was hoping to catch them on local Westwood One affiliates but despite a couple hours of Googling haven't been able to figure out which stations would be carrying the games. Do any locals know good stations for catching the games? I'm looking for stations near Texarkana, Mt. Pleasant, Sulphur Springs, Greenville, Sherman, Gainesville, and Wichita Falls. I'm sure there's a station or two out of the DFW metroplex, but would I be able to tune into that for the entire ride? Much thanks and appreciation for any help!
 
When the locals refuse to carry playoff games, I tune to WWL-870 in New Orleans. With the old KJIM-870 here (whatever it's called now, don't know offhand,) you'll get some daytime interference to a point, but WWL's pretty dependable. The signal's pretty incredible. I also used to pull in WHO-1040 out of Des Moines at night at least, but you may get interference from KGGR-1040 here.

Only sure-fire dependable thing you could do is to get a Sirius unit and subscribe immediately...they're carrying the game audio via satellite.
 
Thank you for another couple suggestions. I want to hear the game, but I'm not about to buy a Siruis/Xm unit. I'd rather hope to skywave it. I've got two more to dial into. This should get me most of the way. Thank you all for the help!

If you have a smartphone or Iphone you can get the SiriusXM app for free and just pay for the online that way you can hear it
 
I 2nd WWL,
If your Driving at Night This station will provide
you with a booming signal of a westwood one game.

Also look for 1660, they aren't Westwood one but I'm sure they will have a game.
They are Waco's Sports Station, but get some pretty good skywave starting in the afternoon.

870 worked great. Thanks again for the help

Good deal! I used to listen there for MNF games when I was couriering at night 10+ years back. Glad SOME things in radio haven't changed.
