ABOUT SATELLITE TELEVISION 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 NetworkSM satellite television services, you must have a satellite dish and receiver installed that are compatible with the DISH NetworkSM. To order pay per view programs, you must connect the receiver to an active telephone connection. Page 1–1 Satellite System User Guide SATELLITE SIGNAL QUALITY RAIN AND SNOW FADE Heavy rain, snow, or cloud cover can block the satellite signal, which can interrupt your programming service. By aiming the satellite dish to get the strongest signal, you can help prevent rain and snow from interrupting the signal. 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 varies, depending on the location, but it will be around the beginning of spring 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. AVAILABLE SERVICES The DISH NetworkSM provides a wide range of exciting and entertaining services covering a variety of interests, including movies, sports, news, education, hobbies, music, shopping, comedy, and more. Subscription Services are program channels or services that you purchase for extended periods. They are billed at regular intervals, and remain activated until you call Customer Service to cancel them. Package Services are groups of services offered to you at a discount. They provide the greatest value to you because they combine the services that you want to activate at a reduced rate. One-Time Services are special broadcast events and other purchases you use once.
