FAQs
Can I run my Tailgater antenna, DISH receiver, and TV from my vehicle?
Yes, you can use an inverter to power your system from your vehicle's DC power supply
(12 V power outlet). If you plan to watch TV for more than a few hours, be sure to start
and run your vehicle for a few minutes every hour. A portable power generator or
alternative accessory battery may also be a better option for operating your system.
Will my Tailgater work during inclement weather?
Though rare, heavy rain, snow, or dense cloud cover can reduce the satellite signal, which
may interrupt your programming. Your programming will return as conditions improve.
Can I add DVR functionality (record and pause live TV) to my receiver?
Your receiver has a port on the back where you can attach a USB external hard drive, adding
DVR functionality for a one-time service fee of $40. For more information or to see if your
receiver is applicable, go to www.dishnetwork.com/supportsection/dvrconversion.
Where can I go for additional assistance with my Tailgater?
If any trouble develops that is not addressed by the Troubleshooting tips in your
User's Guide, you should go to www.dish.com/support or contact DISH Network
at 1-800-333-DISH (3474).
How do I keep my Tailgater from being stolen?
To prevent theft, your Tailgater has a security bracket located at the bottom of the carry
handle. Secure your Tailgater to a fixed object using a padlock and security cable
(not included).
Is my Tailgater compatible with a different model receiver?
