Compared to CBS, FOX looks like absolute crap.

Of course. CBS does HD, FOX doesn't. What you're seeing on the FOX
channel is just 480p widescreen. It doesn't even come close to the
1080i picture you're getting on CBS.


John.

The FOX broadcast image that I get OTA is usually much better then it's
cable SD counterpart for me, though you are correct that it is not HD.

Fox has announced that they will go to HD next year.

I read a nasty rumor that they were not going to broadcast any sports
in HD. And NASCAR does not provide HD source even if they did.

Hope this all changes soon.

HDTV on Fox....

Yes, there was some FOX network HD foot dragging in the past...

By mid 2004 FOX Network should have 'National' 720p HD capability...

However.. If the local FOX stations do not have a full complement
of HD equipment or CASH to handle HD, your local FOX HD feed
could be STD Def digital until the local HD conversion is
complete....
