5.0 out of 5 stars Great system - Check here to make sure you have all the information you need., October 21, 2011

This review is from: Dish Network Tailgater Portable Satellite Antenna (Electronics)
I did lots of research before buying this satellite receiver antenna (Tailgater) and here are my findings.

-We like to go camping and usually it is without hookups. This system with the VIP 211k receiver only draws 20 watts of power and is totally quiet and incredibly easy to use. Normal dish HD TV is spread over 3 satellites (110, 119 and 129) and you would never know this when watching TV. When changing channels as it only takes a 2-5 seconds for the system to silently move to one of the other satellites. Its small and very compact.

-We like the feature that you can just pay for the month(s) that you use this system. You own the equipment so this means- No contract and no fees, just call or go online to turn it on and a month later unless you pay the next months bill it shuts itself off. If you already had a dish subscription- then you have the option of being charged $7 bucks a month (for months used to add this receiver and antenna system... Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars don't buy if you are not an existing Dish Network customer, October 8, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Dish Network Tailgater Portable Satellite Antenna (Electronics)
What they don't tell you is that if you are not an existing dish network customer, you can't download the software necessary to your satellite box to run the tailgater. customer support suggested that I visit a retailer, but as I purchased this on amazon, that option was not available. It was also a problem that I wasn't told this until after I had spent an hour on the phone trying to set it up.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for Tailgating, September 13, 2011
This review is from: Dish Network Tailgater Portable Satellite Antenna (Electronics)
We wanted a way to watch non-broadcast games while tailgating. We first tried a traditional dish. After hours of trying to make that work, we decided that our time would be better spent with another product. We found this, and love it.

When we get to our parking spot, we simply set it up and let it find the satellites. (It finds 3.) In the time it takes up to put up our tent and generally set up, the TV is up and running. We have set it up with an unimpeded view of the southern sky and with a partially blocked view. With a clear view there are no issues. When we tried with a partially blocked view, the screen showed that we weren't getting all of the satellites, but we still had the channels that we wanted, so we didn't have to adjust.

The tailgater is lightweight. We have been very careful with it, so I don't know if it can take any abuse. The wide base makes it unlikely to blow over in moderate winds.
