Everyone one has heard of Satellite TV but do they really know about satellite TV, such as DirecTV has more HD programs than the other guys and what does this mean, well it means that they have more actual satellites sending signals.
It’s the technical side that most people don’t know about satellite TV, like this signal that is sent from the satellite is sent to the dish on the home and then on to the receiver hooked to the televisions in the home. Sounds simple right, well this is how it really works; the satellite does send a signal but there is more.
The satellite company purchases programs so they have the permission and the right to show them to their customers, then they have sent up satellites, these satellites send radio signals to the local broadcasting center.
At the local broadcasting center the radio signal is processed into a signal that is sent to the dish on your home. From there the signal once received is sent to the receivers that are attached to the Televisions in your home.
In the end is the programs you want to see transmitted to your hd television and this is summing it up rather simply because it is much more complicated to send a signal from space that turns into a television program.
