    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_dish

    A satellite finder (or sat finder) is a satellite field strength meter used to accurately point satellite dishes at communications satellites in geostationary orbit. [ 14 ] [ 15 ] [ 16 ] Professional satellite finder meters allow better dish alignment and provide received signal parameter values as well.

  4. Polar mount - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_mount

    A polar mount is a movable mount for satellite dishes that allows the dish to be pointed at many geostationary satellites by slewing around one axis. [1] It works by having its slewing axis parallel, or almost parallel, to the Earth's polar axis so that the attached dish can follow, approximately, the geostationary orbit, which lies in the plane of the Earth's equator.

    The retail price for satellite receivers soon dropped, with some dishes costing as little as $2,000 by mid-1984. [4] Dishes pointing to one satellite were even cheaper. [8] Once a user paid for a dish, it was possible to receive even premium movie channels, raw feeds of news broadcasts or television stations from other areas.

    This corresponds to an inter-satellite spacing of approximately 73 km. The major consideration for spacing of geostationary satellites is the beamwidth at-orbit of uplink transmitters, which is primarily a factor of the size and stability of the uplink dish, as well as what frequencies the satellite's transponders receive; satellites with ...

  7. Cassegrain antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassegrain_antenna

    A beam waveguide antenna is a type of complicated Cassegrain antenna with a long radio wave path to allow the feed electronics to be located at ground level. It is used in very large steerable radio telescopes and satellite ground antennas, where the feed electronics are too complicated and bulky, or requires too much maintenance and alterations, to locate on the dish; for example those using ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-noise_block_downconverter

    A low-noise block downconverter (LNB) is the receiving device mounted on satellite dishes used for satellite TV reception, which collects the radio waves from the dish and converts them to a signal which is sent through a cable to the receiver inside the building. Also called a low-noise block, [1][2] low-noise converter (LNC), or even low ...

    Capacity. 500 MHz. T10 (formerly DirecTV-10) is a Boeing model 702 direct broadcast satellite that provides high-definition television (HDTV) to DirecTV subscribers in North America. [1] It was launched by International Launch Services on July 7, 2007 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan aboard an Enhanced Proton Breeze-M rocket. [2]
