Packers Family Night Scrimmage - HD or not?

[BFavre4MVP]

Tomorrow night is the annual Packers family night scrimmage.  I know some of you would rather watch grass grow (in HD) than endure this glorified practice, but I'm chomping at the bit for some football.

Anyone know if Fox 6 will be broadcasting this in high def?

I think it wasn't last year.

Not showing up in my program guide as HD.

I'd be surprised if it were. The scrimmage broadcast isn't a part of the preseason television contract. If it's like last year, it's a collaborative broadcast by both the Green Bay and Milwaukee FOX stations, and since neither have local field HD production capabilities that we know of, they would have no way to produce this in HD.

To be perfectly honest, the broadcast is dullsville anyway, and wouldn't gain anything from being in HD.

WLUK produces the show. So, no, it won't be in HD.

Also, WITI's field cameras are switchable between 4:3 and 16:9 SD.

Cameras, sure, that's the easy part. I was referring to a HD capable production truck. I think MPTV is the only station in the area with a truck like that.
