WESTERN must act now to remedy the radio broadcast situation.

If they can't get an increase in WIUS' signal-strength, it is imperative that they move the broadcasts back to one of the commercial radio stations.

This past season with the games broadcast on a station with only 120 watts and a broadcast range of only a few miles was a complete failure.

Maybe because they don't reach past Gold Hills on the West and Woodrum's on the East? Who even knows how far they reach North and South?

Just asking: Did anybody listen to today's scrimmage in Naperville on WIU's own radio station "The Dog"? Well, why the hell not?

Maybe even going to a new forum entirely should be considered. I came across this one which deals with Illinois high school sports a few days ago:
http://www.illinoishighschoolsports.com/forum/index.php
I like the look and feel of it. I think it is using vBulletin. Maybe somebody should put in call to the GoDaddy girls and see if they could set it up for us. One new feature I would like to see is a section which contains scores of in-progress and completed WIU games for those occasional times when I can't get RockyVision or the Web Radio broadcast to work for me. Sure I can get it from ESPN site, but I am getting old and lazy.

To the keeper of the current Leatherneck Nation, thanks for doing so.

What about consolidating the forums on LN? Too many repeat topics and too much for somebody to read.
