SATELLITE TELEVISION
Satellite television uses a satellite in a gearynchronaus orbit over the Earth to deliver television and audio
programming This 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 for you
based on the programming or information services you have ordered.
To receive satellite television services, you must have a satellite dish and receiver installed that are compatible
with the DISH Network". To order pay per view programs, you must connect the receiver to an active
telephone connection.

SATELLITE SIGNAL QUALITY
RAiN AND Snow FADE
Heavy rain, snow, or cloud cover can block the satellite signal, This can interrupt your programming service.
By aiming the satellite dish to get the strongest signal, you can help reduce such signal interruptions
SOLAR INTERFERENCE
Twice a year, the sun moves to a position behind the satellite, in orbit around the Earth, The exact time of the
year that this occurs for you will vary, depending on your location, but it will be around the beginning ofspring
and again around the beginning of autumn. When the sun is directly behind the satellite, solar energy
overpowers the satellite signal for just a few minutes. This is an unavoidable natural event for all satellite
television program providers.
During this period, you will not be able to see programs, Once the sun has moved from behind the satellite,
the programs will reappear.
lfyou do not see programs after several minutes, call Customer Service for assistance.
