I constantly, and I do mean constantly, have issues with my 722 losing the OTA signal. For instance right now I'm trying to watch the Fox pre-game show and the signal keeps being lost. Signal strength is in the upper 80's to lower 90's yet the signal keeps dropping.

Same thing for my local ABC, CBS and NBC channels. In fact the ABC and CBS channels have a 97 to 100% signal strength.

It is frustrating as hell. Does the OTA tuner in the 722 just suck or what?
 
The problem is probably not your tuner.

You are probably experiencing multi-path (ghosting for analog). Try re-orienting your antenna slightly left or right to see if you can mitigate some of the reflections your antenna is seeing.

If you are using a bow-tie type of antenna, you might consifer going to a yagi style.
