    It's been reported to use the latest and greatest, and hence is a bit on the large side.

    I have both a 722 & 722K. I see no difference in OTA performance. They also seem to be comparable to the OTA tuners on my HDTVs.

The TV's tuner is able to maintain a picture with a weaker signal versus the 722k which has more drop-outs (and throws up the wonderful yellow signal loss warning). In other words, the TV's tuner does better at "buffering" the OTA signal than the 722k. Therefore since the 722 (non-k) is a little different with its built-in OTA - instead of an optional module - and only sends the OTA signal to one TV, does anyone know if its OTA performs better than the 722k?
    I'm seriously considering replacing the 722k with a 722 for this reason, though I know I'm sacrificing "live OTA" to TV2.

    Thanks...

    Have you noticed a decline recently? Several weeks ago after a software update, my 722k had issues with weaker stations that it never did before release 751. I thought it was my antenna, but I found nt TV tuner was fine. I am now on 752 and it is much better - though not as good as it once was. It especial effected weaker stations on certain UHF ranges.
    Must see TV, TNBC, TGIF,,Laughabcn, Monday nights on CBS when Northern Exposure was on - who said it is just TV?
