Where is the IR eye on the VIP722?

Yes it is.

I wonder why there are 3 'eyes' for the IR. Kinda strange. I suppose any of them will work.

Do you know that you can control TV1 with UHF, no repeater needed?

If in single mode the UHF will work also.

How do I know if it is the 6.3 remote?

The IR remote is 5.3 as comes standard with 622/722. As discussed in other post, you would need to get another 6.3.

Forgot to mention, you'll probably need another antenna.

The center one is your IR receiver.

The other two are blasters.
A legacy hold-over for changing channels and start/stop record for your VCR. (though I guess they would still work)
