One other nice feature that DISH has added under their DISH Outdoors moniker is the ability to change the local channels via their MyDish app when arriving at a new location. Being retired and on the road for a good 4 to 6 months out of the year, DISH works well for us, and especially with this feature. We have a Tailgater mounted on the roof of our fiver, and a 211z receiver in the rig that we own. As we also have DISH services in our S&B, the additional cost for service to the 211z is $7/month, which we can add or remove from the account depending on if we are on the road or at home. I don't know for sure if the Tailgater can see the eastern arc satellites, but I do know that the dish at our S&B home is pointed to the eastern arc, while our fiver is pointed to the western arc. Get the same programming at both locations, at the same time.
The Tailgater only gets the western arc; Winegard Pathway gets either..
I tried to change locals with the app but it wouldn’t let me as I had home equipment.
I didn’t try to call them.
You can also reauthorize your box if it’s been sitting.
