The Satellite TV Network Needs



So you're thinking about subscribing to a satellite TV network. Your local cable company may not have all of the programming that you want. And, basically, a cable company has no competition except a satellite TV network. Before you become too set on those hundreds of channels, high def capability, affordable packages and the like, make sure that your home has the necessary components to work with a satellite TV network.

What It Takes

Don't worry. The satellite companies are motivated to make the needs as basic and simple as possible. However, these needs are very basic to the operation of a satellite system. First, you will need an unobstructed southern view. The signal is so small that you can't see it. It will bounce off anything that blocks it. You will need access to the southern sky that is not obstructed by trees, buildings or anything else. This is non-negotiable.

If you live in a large apartment complex and your apartment faces anywhere but south, you may be out of luck. Speaking of renters, if you are installing a dish on a building that you don't own, you will need the correct permission from your landlord. The FCC allows renters to install a dish on any part of their own apartment. Since a window can also distort a signal, that will mean balconies, window ledge or the like. For those who own their home, the roof or chimney is also good. A landlord may make these available for a renter to access a satellite TV network, too.

The right kind of wiring is important. Connection to the satellite TV network demands an RG-6 coaxial cable. Some new structures are wired with this level of cable and any building that has been wired for cable TV should have the kind of cable needed for the satellite TV network. If the building does not have the needed cable, a new wire can be run. Of course, the subscriber's home must be within the area covered by the satellite TV network of his choice.

Usually, that just involves being on the right continent. If you're not sure that your home meets the requirements of your chosen satellite TV network, check with the satellite company. If you don't meet their standards, try another company. They really do want your business and are willing to do as much as they can manage to do a good job for you.
