Best format to transfer to digi-beta at DVinfo.net

I shot a music Video with the EX1 1280 720 30p. I need get the file transferred to Digi-beta to air on a cable station 720x480 widescreen. Whats the best file format to render out too. Using Vegas Pro 9 to give to the production house.

Probably a render out as uncompressed AVI (or DV widescreen) and then print to tape with the digibeta camera or deck connected to the system.

I should point out that uncompressed AVI is NOT the same thing as widescreen DV. DV is actually somewhat compressed. Render a 10 sec clip as both and you will quickly see the difference.
