Actually there is...or at least Bend Broadband is carrying a "version" of it they are calling HD...

(down on ch 645; SD version on 45)
avsforum indicates D* is carrying it in HD, but that's incorrect & have been informed as such.

no you didnt. It was SD only when it was a subchannel
that was USN's decision to become cable/sat only..
[FONT="]Hello! I'm an employee of Universal Sports Network and I wanted to provide some insight on this topic. Universal Sports made the transition to a High Definition (HD) feed in February of this year. The decision to broadcast Universal Sports in HD in your channel lineup is not actually up to our Network, but rather your respective TV providers. They have to make the decision about whether to allow US the bandwidth space required to transmit the signal in HD rather than SD. [/FONT]
[FONT="]Universal Sports is currently available in HD on a host of regional cable providers. One member of this forum correctly indicated that Bend Broadband has US available in High Definition. If you would like to see our Network available in High Def, please contact your TV providers and let them know you'd like to see Universal Sports Network in HD! [/FONT]

No, what dish did was put the channel in wide screen. Where the OTA was in full screen, but still SD non the less.

Funny, because some of your new owner's regional cable systems don't even get USN yet.
When you speak about "your new owner," I'm under the impression you are referring to Comcast.
I understand your frustration regarding this topic but I would like to pass some information your way. Comcast is the parent company of NBC Universal, which owns a minority non-controlling interest in Universal Sports. What this means is that we need to negotiate with Comcast just like any other Network does. What is needed now is for the fans of our network to keep the heat on Comcast & other Providers and convince them there are enough of you out there that will watch the sports we broadcast that no other sports network pays attention to. You can call 1-800-55-GET-US and telling your provider you want Universal Sports!
