I have the DISH® Tailgater® Pro 2 Satellite Antenna in. I am currently in southeast Pennsylvania. I am trying to set up the satellite. It has a clear sight to satellites but won't lock on. I have plugged, unplugged, checked coax, rebooted receiver. It is connected directly into the wally...

So far I have found several different answers for the azimuth 61.5 satellite (Dish network) for my location 17572... 169, 157, 186 Other than trial and error anybody know what's accurate?

My satellite dish will find it, I am just trying to find out what the azimuth is from where I am. Zip code 17572

I am in a campground in pennsylvania on western arc 110/119, but the tree leaves are coming in and have total signal loss. Can I switch to eastern arc? What (name) do I look for in sat finder to know where to point satellite? Thanks!!

Yeah I saw that!! Good deal.

Mine is really old, possibly like 10 yrs old. I am having some issues and want to get a new one. Have they changed at all? ALso, is the one on Amazon the same as what Dish sells? Thanks!!

Oh ok thank you! That is kinda low, I guess I'll know when I get there. Thank you!!!

Ok I put in the actual position I will be in and got the attached.....

Oh, so I should be ok with my current satellite? That is good news!

Don't care about locals, don't need a satellite dish for that. I'm concerned with satellite channels. I will be near Lancaster PA. Thanks

Hi, I have an older tailgater that only aquires western arc sats. I am heading to Pennsylvania. Will it work there? Or do I need one that will get eastern sats?? Worried about the cost of a new one :( Thanks!!

Yup, that's what I think is the problem, a loose connector. Unfortunately mine are not easy to get to.

My RV connection has worked fine for 4 yrs! I am thinking a connector that I just can't get to (at the moment) has come loose from all the traveling. I just have to go underneath the RV, inside the enclosed underbelly and trace the cable.

UPDATE: Think I fixed it....started troubleshooting....cable first. Ran Cable direct to receiver instead of through the RV hookup. It worked! I can change channels as I did before with no issues. Unfortunately the problem is internal to the RV. I cannot get to any of the cable so now have to run...

Ugh!! Ok no that is not the problem. This has never happened before in all the years I've been using it. There is a problem and I am trying to figure out what it is. But thanks anyway.
