Another year, another great race, another request for. . .the banquet! Come on, II. Even just audio would be appreciated. Any chance of it happening?

Insider does record the awards portion of the banquet.. and that will be uploaded to Insider at some point soon after... The banquet is not live streamed due to bandwidth issues.

I'm most interested in hearing the stories from the trail, if those can be recorded and shared - more important to me than the awards.

From what I remember of past Insider offerings of the banquet.........is not much.

I too, wish to hear the tales from the trail from the men and women who have first hand knowledge.

Awards are good to hear, but stories are the meat of the banquet.

Why can't KNOM stream live on the internet? I heard some of the restart from them. Sound quality was very good.

I was just wishing I knew someone in Nome who could record it off the radio - would be easy enough to do, if you were there. KNOM is a religious radio station, and perhaps for some reason the concept of streaming their content beyond their local community isn't important within their concept of their mission, or maybe it is too expensive or complicated technically with whatever equipment they have. I contacted them a few years ago and their response was simply that they don't do online streaming. I see on their website that once again they are broadcasting the banquet live, but are reiterating that they have no streaming.

KICY, another Nome church's radio station, does stream, but they don't broadcast the banquet.

The folks at Iditablog did say that they are going to record the banquet this year, and promised to post the unedited audio tomorrow, and an edited version that cuts out all the silent gaps while people are walking to the stage, etc., in a day or two. I am crossing my fingers that they are successful and that we can access that tomorrow.
