With network drops at Boston and Palmetto the SOAP team will send the feed to the NASA-KSC servers.

Florida and Virginia also handled by NASA; likely Texas and Silicon Valley.

I wish NASA would broadcast GLR. GLR (from my biased standpoint) is probably the toughest and most competitive of the regionals. We are home to numerous Championship placing teams.

I definitely intend to watch regional webcasts from this week to know what to expect next weekend when it comes to scores and penalties.

I feel your pain. CR is a competitive regional, but it doesn't get as much attention as Detroit and Boilermaker. As a Chesapeake Regional, I'm happy that NASA's working on something to broadcast our regional over satellite TV. It's a tough regional, but a fun one. Our winning alliance fell, but other teams such as 1507 (Rookie All-Stars last year) and 175 did extremely well at nationals.

If you have DVR software on your computer, you might be able to record them directly.
Otherwise, if you have a video out port on your computer that you can connect to your VCR, you can get it on videotape. We've been taping webcasts for years this way.

[Nuttyman54]

Thanks, i'll try that!

FYI, GTR is slated to be webcast! at least according to this page

[Freddy Schurr]

Another one that should be webcast is the Philly Competiton, some say that the robots that compete here are the best in the East Coast! Work up

This weekend some of my friends are coming over to watch VCU on our bigscreen.
