Does Dish DVR work when the satellite is out?
No, the cable will not work when the satellite is out. The satellite is what brings you the picture. If you are concerned about the satellite, I would stay with cable.
Do you need a satellite box if you get a satellite dish?
Yes, each companies dish is made to work only with their electronics (box).
How well does satellite tv work in Tennessee?
You can get satellite TV to work virtually anywhere as long as you have a clear line of sight for the signal. Each company (e.g. Dish satellite , DirecTV) has different satellite orbitals, so it will vary by company as to where your Dish is pointed.
Does a cable box work with satellite dish?
No, it is made for use with cable only.
Will a satellite tv work without the box and only off of a spliter?
No. You must have a satellite receiver connected to the satellite dish that will decode the satellite transmissions and present it for display on your TV set.
How does a DSTV decoder work?
The DSTV decoder connects to a Satellite Dish on the top of your house. That dish receives a digital satellite television (DSTV) signal. Your decoder then decodes this signal and outputs it into your TV.
Can you use your Direct TV box on a different satellite dish?
Yes, the receiver will still work.
How does the proper satellite signal get to the TV channel?
The correct signal for satellite TV is determined by the direction the satellite dish is pointed. DirecTV and Dish Network signals come out of the Southern sky from the direction directly above Texas. Many other satellites orbit the earth and send out audio and video signals of all different types and formats. Simply put, a satellite dish is like a catchers mitt and will catch any signal coming from the satellite it is aimed towards. The signal received will need to be properly matched with the in house receivers and equipment in order to work properly. For example, if a Dish Network dish is aimed towards a DirecTV satellite signal, the system will not work.
How do satellites and TV signals work?
Satellite TV Providers transmits the signals through their satellite dish converting it first from digital signals to analog signals. These signals which were converted will be transmitted to the satellite. The satellite will then transmit the analog signals per request of the satellite dish connected to the receiver of the subscriber. Once signals are received, it will be converted back to digital signals which can be read by the receiver and be displayed to the television.
How does a satellite service internet work?
Satellite Internet works by the provider sending an installer to your home to install your local dish, either on your roof, or in your yard on a pole. The local satellite (the one at your residence) communicates with satellites in the sky with a beam. It is transmitted inward and outward via the two satellites. You will still have a modem inside of your home connected to your computer or router, but this is just to transfer data from your computer to the modem, them modem to and from the satellite. I hope this helps!
Can you use a directv dish with a dishnetwork receiver?
Just to clarify on the answers given. The LNBs are different for DISH Network and DTV along with the receivers. The LNB and receiver takes the signal from the satellite and gives you your signal on your TV. As stated, you can't use different receivers and LNB from different companies. The dish outside does not matter, just the LNB and receiver. Simply, no. The satellite dishes use different switching schemes internally for accessing the satellite transponders. Bull....loney. I'm using an old 18" DirecTv dish to receive signals from a Dishnetworks satellite at 119W. The satellite receivers will be different because different signalling protocols are used.
