The good news for MLB fans just keeps on coming. Hot on the heels of a number of regional
announcements to broadcast oodles of MLB matchups in high-definition this year comes a similar edict from FSN Wisconsin. The network is gearing up to broadcast 65 of the Milwaukee Brewers games in HD this season, which is up from 17 last year but still less than half of the club's total games. Fans in the area can catch the first Brewers HD telecast when it opens the season against the Chicago Cubs, but alas, Charter subscribers still won't be able to join in. As it stands, DirecTV, DISH Network, Time Warner Cable and Tri County Cable are all signed on to serve up FSN Wisconsin content in HD, but we can only hope that this pledge to put more high-def material on the channel will convince Charter of its worthiness. Check out the read link for the full HD schedule.

Hmm, I swear there were more than 17 HD Brewer games on FSN (our channel 740 for HD).
I guess I could be mistaken thou..
Yeah, we'll see if they're actually on Dish... we don't actually get FSN Wisconsin, we get "FSN North," which has two versions... and we get the Minnesota one.
At least they've put a bunch more HD "alternate" channels in, so hopefully we'll get it...
Well, the Brewer game is not available in HD on DISH tonight. I spent an hour explaining to them how their own system works and was eventually told that FSN is not supplying them with the HD feed. I find that hard to believe considering Thursday's game was broadcast in HD and worked great on the HD Sports Alternate. If anybody knows how to get ahold of FSN please let me know.
You're audio sucks on recent brewer broadcasts. Whats up ?????
