The MT2 Over-the-Air (OTA) Module allows you to add two digital
over-the-air tuners to your satellite receiver. This provides the ability to
integrate over-the-air channels into the on-screen Program Guide of
compatible receivers for seamless viewing by both the TV1 and TV2
viewers. If your satellite receiver is a DVR (digital video recorder),
using this module will also allow you to record digital over-the-air
broadcasts.

In addition, the MT2 OTA Module adds a Channel 3-4 coax output, for
connection to standard-definition TVs.

Installation Considerations

• The OTA Module is compatible with only specific receiver

models. Refer to your receiver’s User Guide to determine if your
receiver model can use the module.

• The OTA Module is capable of receiving only digital over-the-air

broadcasts, not analog.

• These instructions assume that your satellite receiver is already

connected to a dish antenna, and has the most current software. If
not, you must connect the satellite receiver to your dish antenna
and download current software, using the instructions included
with those pieces of equipment.

• A DISH Network programming subscription is required to

receive over-the-air channels using the OTA Module.

• The OTA Module does not provide pass-through of analog OTA

signals.
