  If you're experiencing channel signal loss (error 004) with your Dish Network Antenna, it could be because the Tailgater hasn't tracked to the correct orbital slot after a channel change. Try unplugging the receiver's power cord for 10 seconds, then plug it back in, and allow up to 5 minutes for it to power back on. Also, on the Portable Antenna Setup Screen, verify the correct state is selected, highlight "Scan" and press SELECT. Allow a few minutes for the system to download the electronic program guide and acquire signal.

  If you're getting partial signal loss (error 002) on your Dish Network Antenna, it's likely due to obstructions such as tree branches or heavy rain blocking the Tailgater's view of the southern sky. Make sure the antenna has a clear view. You may also want to check that the coax cable between your receiver and the Tailgater is connected properly. Try unplugging the power cord of your receiver for 10 seconds and plug it back in, allowing up to 5 minutes for the receiver to power back on.

  If you're experiencing complete signal loss (error 015) on your Dish Network Satellite TV System, several factors could be responsible. There might be obstructions blocking the Tailgater's view of the southern sky, like tree branches or heavy rain. Also, the coax cable might not be properly connected between your receiver and the Tailgater. Additionally, you might be trying to watch a local channel outside its designated spot beam area. To fix this: * Ensure there are no obstructions blocking the Tailgater's view. * Check and tighten the coax cable connections. * Reboot your receiver by unplugging it for 10 seconds, then plugging it back in (allow 5 minutes to power on). * Verify you're tuned to a nationally broadcast channel.
