For me, and I think for just about everybody, MeTV is an over-the-air operation. I’m watching on a Sony flatscreen, and when I hit the “display” option on the remote, I get the details of the display.

My local channels:

Channel 48 for is subchannels 1 through 4 and the 48.12. I can check to see how much ERP is allocated to each subchannel. That would be a limiting factor in each subchannel’s resolution.

Per Wikipedia, WDME is a low-power operation. Subchannel 1 is the only channel broadcast in 720p.
