    722 Wiring to second TV

    I never hooked my 722 to a second TV. I see there are RCA's for TV 2. Can I use the "home distribution" coax port to get a second signal to another TV? I want both TV's to be able to watch different things at the same time.

    Anyone else getting these? Any way to get rid of them. Just noticed them yesterday. You can push the guide button twice and they will disappear, but I don't want to see them in the first place.

    I hate MLB and ESPN. For years I have been bitching about being blacked out of Phillies games in Erie, PA. Now, Friday I go to watch the Cubs and Brewers game on ESPN and it's blacked out! Why in the world would that game be blacked out in Erie, PA?

    OTA Quality

    I hooked up my antenna to my Dish Network box last night to try and pull in the digital channels OTA. My locals only provide SD, via OTA and by sat. I got 60% signal quality with OTA. I couldn't tell any difference in PQ from OTA to sat. They both are sub par imo. Should OTA be better than...

    I pay an extra $1.50 per month for WPIX on channel 234. Some time ago, I noticed that WPIX popped up on channel 251. Is WPIX or more importantly CW now part of a package that I don't need to pay extra for? I don't have a local CW affiliate.

    Dumb HD questions

    722 recording longer than program

    I've noticed that my 722 will record an extra hour for sports programs only. This is nice for some football games that may run over their alloted times, but it does it with anything coded as "sports" when you hit the info button. Anyone else notice this?

    I'm upgrading to Dish next week. 1) I need an OTA to get locals in HD. I don't get that great of a signal with my regular antenna. Is an OTA antenna different? Will I get a better picture? What are the distance limitations from the tower? 2) Does the receiver come with an HDMI cable?

    New Toshiba DLP has "jumpy" picture

    I just bought a new TV and set it up last night (in a hurry). I hooked in my standard Dish Network signal to the coax input. I noticed that the picture jumps slightly from right to left. It's very noticeable if you put on Dish's channel guide or stare at a logo on a channel, like the ESPN logo...
