Hello, was wondering if a dishnetwork uhf antenna will work on a dsr 922 4dtv reciever i'm currently watching one on ebay but it looks like there is no uhf antenna.

Can't you make one out of a large paperclip, a plastic bead, and a used connector? - 
. . . or maybe a length of music-wire from a hobby-shop.
Is lack of that little antenna really a concern?
edit: sorry, don't mean to be rude.
Just seems like something easy enough to fashion if it's missing.
And I think DishStore may even sell them...

No it's not really a big deal i more or less was just wondering if a dishnetwork one would work because it would be an easy fix.
the antennas are universal so as long as the receiver can support it, then it will work just fine
It's easy enough to make one out of a piece of coax if the jack is an F connector like most are.
I have a DN 222 receiver located in the bedroom, and my wife sometimes watches the second tuner in the living room. She was having some trouble with the remote not responding properly. I used a piece of coax from the UHF antenna jack and ran it into the basement and tacked it to a floor joist at a point under her chair. I cut the jacket and braid and left a length of center conductor that was close to the length of the little antenna...no more problem...
