Dish Tailgater - existing subscriber
Is the true (and only) monthly cost for using the Dish Tailgater only $7 to existing subscribers? I'm thinking about buying this system if there aren't additional costs... Thanks

Have a question not quite on subject but close..Is there a carry out dome antenna that will support a Dish 722K DVR receiver? My understanding is that there isn't one but maybe I'm missing something. We love our 722K for the DVR feature but I hate the hassle of aiming the antenna on the tripod..sometimes takes 5 minutes other times it will be an hour. I know we can add a external hard drive but really don't want the hassle of another device and the problem of finding a place to put it. Hubby is not as anxious as I am to get the auto antenna but then he is not the person screaming numbers out the window like a crazy person!!
"In theory" the 722 would work but you are never going to be able to use it as you would at home. Since all domes contain only 1 LNB, your receiver has 2 tuners,and Dish uses 3 satellites, only if by change the 2 programs were being broadcast from the same satellite would you have a successful end result.
The other option is the Winegard Anser. This antenna can be pointed to Dish 72.7 and Dish broadcasts all of their programming from this one satellite so your 722 would work without issue. HOWEVER, there is no Network programming on 72.7 so you would need to use your OTA antenna to receive that programming.
