I have used a standard house dish on a tripod but want to get something automatic as setting it up can be a PITA sometimes depending on the type of ground I am on. I was going to buy a tailgater but it sounds like I would be better off with the X2 for dish. True or false? Will I be missing channels with the tailgater?
From my own observations the only thing you would possibly lose would be your locals. Why they chose to put some of the local feeds on the 129 sat which is very low on the horizon in the east is beyond me.
In the western arc. the HD spotbeam channels (Locals) are indeed on 129. Probably because the bulk of HD is on 129. I use the western arc with my tripod & 1000.4 on the road. At home My locals and most HD channels are on 61.5 since a tree blocks my view of 110/119/129.
