    722k Remote won't back up

    I thought that only applied to the 922. How do you do this backup/restore?

    'Bout time... But "both" local PBS stations? You have two? We'll probably never see it.

    Dish 722k: Wait For Sling Adapter or Buy Now?

    Are you sure a regular Sling requires a d/a-a/d conversion? That wouldn't make sense.

    Diplexing Internet & Dish Signal
