Any tried or had experience with using some type of broadband setup (mi-fi, etc) to use for tailgating TV? I am trying to think of creative ways to get rid of the hassle of setting up a dish every time. My concern is that once the crowd begins to grow in the area for the event, the priority of...

Thanks!! Do you also agree once the 101 is tuned in around the 85-92% range, the other sat's will be enough for tailgating purposes?

Gang... based on what I am going to get for setup... Best suggestions for DTV satellite signal meter(without breaking the bank)?

great info/tip on the post level.... thanks!!

yes... in doing more research, it is apparent I have a non-SWM setup. That being said, this is the tailgate package I am going with. Please let me know if i am missing anything. Everyone has been a huge help...

I have older HR21 receivers, so I am going to guess I have non-SWM?

I just tried the dash key on the lower left of the receiver. It just indicated to me that the receiver was connected to the internet. Is there another way to tell if I am a swm setup?

I borrowed that action plan from other posts about getting a swm lnb... but to be honest, not sure exactly about my setup at home other than it is a 5LNB dish. Is there a way to tell? Is the change from home to tailgating just in the setup of the receiver? (changing it from one dish type to...

Home zip code is 37129

i just noticed one other point from a post as well.. I have a 5LNB at home... so if I am understanding correctly I will need a 5LNB for the tailgate?

Luckily, where we tailgate, we are still inside our spotbeam for locals. Just wanted to make sure I hit the right transponders for them. And whether or not I need a 3LNB dish or a 5LNB dish

I'm mainly looking for my locals in HD(ABC, CBS, etc) and ESPN. Not sure if I have answered your question or not. I can also go to a 5LNB dish if need be to make this happen.

Moving to HD tailgating this fall. Will be picking up a slimline 3 swm LNB, with a power inserter very soon. Which transponders do I need to hit? That being said, will this setup allow me to pick up my local stations as well? Many thanks!!

Going with the Slimline setup and dialing in 101,99 and 103, should there be any channels I wont get? Some local channels perhaps?

Guys... thanks for the response and info. (And especially for calling me out on being a serious tailgater ;-) I am a regular tailgater... I guess not serious enough...lol Where can I get a Slimline? Any need to buy any additional equipment to help the lining up? (I have the standard...

Read enough on the fourms to learn that trying to get a true HD signal for tailgating is probaby not worth the effort. Being a big tailgater, would love to improve the experience nevertheless. I can get setup in minutes with my current setup. My question is......Can I take my HD20...

I have the low end Direct HD receiver along with the standard DVR receiver. I have these hooked up to two different TV's. Both receivers are in the same a/v closet with my IR repeaters. The problem is that when you change the channel on the HD receiver, it also changes the channel on the...

I figured as much... thanks to everyone that replied.

Nashville to Jacksonville, FL. I have already experienced the issues... just wondering if there is a work around. Thanks

Is there a way to get around DTV's restriction that you dont get local channels when fire up your receiver outside your local market? Just trying to figure out a way to get local channels through DTV when tailgating short of a seperate TV antenna. Thanks in advance...
