As you say, I think it depends on how your TV up-scales the SD signal, some 
certainly do a better job than others.  I suspect for a "good" result, the 
TV needs to blur/hide the low-resolution of the SD signal, rather than 
trying to display it as sharp as possible (while that will give the most 
accurate results, it also most accurately shows you how bad the original 
signal is!).
