Hey gents.
Larry, I don't watch NASCAR too much anymore, but I could almost swear I get
most of the race in 16:9 1080i HD. In-car camera shots and some others
revert to 4:3, but the race is 16:9. Maybe I can check again tomorrow.

If it's being transmitted in HD, why isn't NBC broadcasting it in HD?
My local NBC channel and cable company. definitely broadcasts HD so
they have the capability.
It's sad when you can watch a horrible 30 min sitcom in HD, but a major
sporting event comes through in SD 4:3.

I left DirecTV and my DirecTivo (extremely hesitently) after being with
them from the very beginning solely because of the HD/DVR situation with
DirecTv. As soon as the boxes are down to sub-trump pricing levels I'm
going back.
