Caution: I do not have one but if you buy the 211z, I understand that it will not receive required software update programming (not TV package) through a Tailgator. You would need to connect it to a different kind of dish or take it to a local DISH dealer, before connecting with the Tailgator. Bill Adams would have more on that.
The 211Z will do fine with a Tailgater or Pathway but only those specific dome antenna as Dish wrote special software for that setup. Any of the other domes "might" have an issue but my understanding is that they are updating the current receivers being shipped out (at least from Winegard). The 211z has no issues if you connect it to a standard Dish open faced antenna for the initial activation (or if the dealer activates it).
