Answer: It's called DirecTV 3 and is located at 91.0°W over the equator.
DISH Network uses quite a few different Satellites, not only one. The satellites we currently use consist of the following, 61.5, 72.7, 77, 110, 118.75, 119, and 129.
Yes, the satellites orbit in a geosynchronous orbit, as with most all communications satellites. (Some exceptions are satellites such as the global positioning satellites.)
A moon, as opposed to artificial satellites that we manufacture and place in orbit, like the DirecTV satellite.
Depending on where you live, locals are either on the 79.5, 95, or 103 degrees satellites. National HD programming is on the 110 or the 119 degree satellites. Standard programming generally falls on the 101 degree satellite.
At my house in Texas, on DirecTV, ONE does the trick. I have HD channels.
in almost all areas you can get hd it requires a multi position dish for example slimline dish. in my area.
Yes.It is called geosynchronous orbit where the satellite speed equals the rotation of earth but is far enough so gravity doesn't effect its orbit immediately.Weather satellites are geosynchronous as are communication, broadcast (DirecTv and Dish, to name a few), spy, scientific.http://www.spacetoday.org/Satellites/SatBytes/SatOrbits.html
No. It is not hard to use DirectTv DVR with Tivo. The reason how I know this is because I have a Tivo and i find that it is not hard to use directtv dvr with it.
AnswerThey are both private services. DirecTV is a satellite TV company. Unlike cable companies, which use coaxial cable wires to transfer the audio and visual signals, DirectTV uses satellites (but unlike other satellite TV, using DirecTV means accessing a private signal).DirecTV is a new competitor to your local cable company. To decide which is better for you, you need to think about what you need and compare their packages and prices.Here is a website you can reference in regards to comparing the two. http://www.dishtvreviews.com/. It also goes over the differences between two major satellite providers.
DirecTv uses several different telemarketing agencies to contact their customers. Apparently DirecTv has violated federal regulations on telemarketing several times.
