Since I was at Lowell for both games, all I can tell you is the signal
made it from the arena to MediaOne's headend in Lowell. Saturday's replay
was shown in Cambridge ( on MediaOne's LO channel 3) as was the Sunday
game live. However a friend in Newton told me it was not carried there. I
know yesterday (Saturday) there was a problem getting the signal to
Arlington, but that was fixed....

Cambridge is the bridge to the Watertown/Newton complex, so perhaps there
was a problem there.
