DirecTV sends it out in 1920x1080, but it’s still interlaced (1080i).


Directv sends everything out in native. If a channel is in 720p, that is what the DirecTV signal is. If the channel is 1080i, DirecTV sends it in 1080i.

You can have two channels at 720p, yet one can have a better picture quality than the other (which is what's probably happening in OPs case).

Of course. No one is up upscaling from the source. I was using that as a point of reference when compared to DISH.
