This is why ABC and FOX chose 720P over 1080i. Not only does progressive scan catch moving sports better, it gives you the bandwith for two good SD sub-channels.

They could have moved Wimbledon to WRBU-46, or, if they were not 1080i, put it on KSDK-3 (assuming they keep Weather Plus as KSDK-2).

If the Roberts brothers moved their stick (transmitter tower) closer in, and bumped up the power, they could be cleaning up.
