Thanks for the reply. It would be on a current Dish subscription, not Shaw, Bell or other Canadian service and will be used during summer months while on the road. The Tailgater is powered by the receiver as it auto locates satellites, so I was concerned it may be different than other dish combos that I know will work north of the border. I could always use a regular dish, but the Tailgater looks to be a quick set-up for those of us who change locations frequently. Also, could someone point me to a website that will show if I can get Seattle local channels in Vancouver, BC?
