HOW TO GET USA HD ON YOUR CABLE SYSTEM

Working in the television industry myself, I wanted to pass this along. With many cable providers and satellite companies still not carrying USA Network in HD yet, people will be wondering what can they do to get it. I spoke with someone today a large cable provider and here are a few tips:
- Call your cable/satellite provider and tell them you want USA in HD!ÂÂ
- Go to the cable office to request, in person, the channel in HD.
- Write them a letter (or 5) requesting the channel in HD.
- Do anything you can, legally, that would annoy the heck out of your cable or satellite company! The more you bug them and bother them, the more they will tell their boss. Then their boss will tell their boss until finally, someone will make the call to get the channel!ÂÂ
The important thing to remember is to be consistent about bugging cable providers. They aren't going to give in unless one of two things happen: The man who makes the decision wants the channel, or they see that the demand is high enough to warrant adding the channel. Get all of your friends, family and co-workers to do it too! ÂÂ
