Satellite TV is better only in some cases. It is better in areas that have no cable service or have very limited cable selection.

This is because cable has a limited reach because of isntallition issues.

Yes. Most likely you will need new wiring for having both satellite television and cable TV depending on the circumstance. When the technician comes out, be sure to tell them you have satellite or cable so they do not interfere with your current programming. Many people have Cable Internet and Satellite TV because generally satellite TV is cheaper and has more channels available--especially HD channels and international channels that are not available with most cable companies.
How do you use television?
You connect it to cable/satellite and then scan the television for the channels and use it. Beware if you use basic cable that you will only be able to get less than 100 channels. I suggest using D-TV to get a little more channels. If you use satellite I suggest Dish network as it is cheaper no matter what DirecTV says.
Is satellite TV better in any way when compared to cable?
It is generally cheaper and may offer some sports channels that cable doesn't, but cable tends to be more reliable.
