    New 722 User: Issues with 720P vs 420P

    I just got the 722. I have a TV that supports 720p, but when I set this up on the 722, I get no picture on my HD channels. IF I put it on 420P, the channels are fine. Any reason why? Do I need to hook this up via HDMI wires?

    Regional Sports Channels

    I just signed up for the Platinum HD package. They are telling me that I can not get all the regional sport channels because of the area I live in (Chicago). Is this correct? D* never had this restriction. This is pissing me off. NESN (434) is not even showing up on my guide (622 receiver)...

    When is OTA needed?

    I keep reading threads about OTAs. When are they needed? I live in a suburb of Chicago. According to the E* website, it says that I should be able to get my CBS, NBC, Fox and ABC in HD. I believe WGN carries some of their stuff in HD. Would I need a OTA to get this in HD? How does that...
