If I "move" and still want to get OTA for my locals will I need to get an antenna and digital converter box to pick up my local signals? I have a ViP 722. Thanks for your help...
You can still tune in local ATSC channels with your 722, no matter where you've "moved" to. I understand you will even get EEPG data for those locals, assuming you subscribe to Dish locals somewhere else.
You'll need some form of OTA antenna but not the converter box - the 722 will resolve the digital channels it receives, but there's the catch. YMMV drastically depending on your location and what type of antenna system you need to/can provide. Use something like AntennaWeb to see what's available and what type of equipment you'll need. TV Fool is another great resource...
