722K question

[Kurto2021]

If I have a 722K and an antenna connected to it will TV2 be able to pull in OTA locals? I know the 622 doesn't work but would the 722?

Yes, you need the OTA module installed in the 722k, about $30-40. You also need to be a dishnetwork customer with that box active on your account. The locals will show up in the guide after a off air scan is performed. The 622 has the OTA built in.

Don't know about the k, but a 722 will onlu show OTA locoals if you in single tuner mode. In dual tuner it will only show locals if you subscribe to your locals thru Dish.

YES, tv2 will pull OTA with the 722K.

I have an antenna connected to my VIP722K and of course get all of the OTA locals here in Madison, WI. I also subscribe to locals. How do I go about installing this module? Something I can do myself?
Thanks.

2 screws to remove the cover plate - insert module - reinstall the 2 screws - attach antenna - scan for channels. Don't know what they suggest to do with the cover, so I just put in under the 722k for storage.
