No as thats the 922, not the 722k.Any signs of Sling Server Software on the box yet?
Looks like they dropped the S-Video and moved the network and USB connections around.
Just got out of a chat with E* and she said she had no option to select 722K. I'm not sure how the other poster got the DIU price for a 722K. Not saying he/she didn't, but the gal I chatted with was REALLY helpful and she couldn't set it up.
That sucks.
I wonder if it is just a lower quality signal gettin to the chips since it is split internally.

I know some people are confused as when Dish introduced the 922 at Team Summit last year it was called the "722s" they then changed the name to the 922 to avoid confusion as it is so much more then a 722.
This is correct.so the HD GUI is only on the 922s not the 722k right?
I just did a DIU on Friday for $104.99: $75 for the 722k and 29.99 for the MT2, self installed. Replacing my 722.
This sucks as the 922 uses the same module no? Hopefully it is just a software bug that can be corrected ...
I hope so.This sucks as the 922 uses the same module no? Hopefully it is just a software bug that can be corrected ...
I hope so.
Also like the 622 the 722k can not tune in the Digital Subchannels on WTNH out of New Haven. I just get a black screen on those subchannels, while on other ATSC tuners I get a weather forecast channel.
So far almost everything is like the 622/722 although the Broadband option on the settings menu is 8 not 9. So the instructions for setting up the Slingguide site with this receiver are not correct.
I have setup the box on the dish.sling.com beta site and verified with the access code from the box, yet I can't get the box to show up online on the Sling website. So they are talking but not talking correctly.
I just managed to crash the unit by trying the System Wizard setup. It gave me an error screen then locked up the receiver. Only way to get out was to use the handy reboot button on the front of the unit.
