What else we could stick in there ?

[No, not this part, I know it will not fit inside ].

Can you clarify whether this is a module to give a 2nd OTA ATSC tuner to a 722k? (I still prefer my "tuner warp" idea for existing receivers.)

[Scott Greczkowski]

Yes this is it. It adds two over the air ATSC tuners to the 722k.

Interesting what else the connector could accommodate ?

QAM? (I know nothing; I'm just speculating.)

[Smith, P.]

Oh, new Q-BOX, why not ?

[bkushner]

Why are they doing this and just not having the tuners in there like the other models?

[Smith, P.]

Bad economy!

I think the reason that they are not including them is because most people don't use the OTA tuner. As long as they get HD locals they can record two things at once and they don't really care about setting up an OTA antenna.
