ELEVISION
Satellite television uses a satellite in a
geosynchronous orbit over the Earth to deliver
television and audio programming. This type of
orbit enables the satellite to stay aligned over one
place on the surface of the Earth. Once the satellite
dish is aimed at the satellite, the dish does not have to
move to follow it.
The programming signal is transmitted to the satellite
from a facility on the ground called the “Uplink
Center.” The satellite then transmits the signal to the
dish. The signal the receiver processes is customized
based on the programming or information services
ordered.
To receive DISH Network
SM
satellite television
services, you must have a satellite dish and receiver
installed that are compatible with the DISH
Network
SM
. To order pay per view programs, you
must connect the receiver to an active telephone
connection.
