Dutch, didn't you flame me in another thread for burbling about how easy the Tailgater is? Hmmm? Now you're a True Believer!
As said, the Tailgater is unbelievably easy. Dealing with Dish ought to be, but isn't.
@HappyCamper2003--My experience with trees has been just the opposite--very good. The Tailgater seems to shoot through some very narrow gaps. Be aware that it has to find at least 2 out of 3 sats, so there is a dark art to moving it around to get that second bird without losing the first, but at least you don't have to aim anything.
ALSO: I upgraded the coax cable to 100 feet of low-loss without any problems. This means I can march that little dome way out there in an effort to find unobstructed sky.
