Satellite television uses a satellite in a stationary 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.

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 during installation, you can help prevent rain and snow
from interrupting the signal. Your service will return after the weather
condition has passed.
Tip: The system
automatically
displays
programs based
on the current day
and time. You can
advance the Guide
to view informa-
tion on future
programs, but not
programs that
have already
ended.
Tip: If you lose
your picture, it’s
most likely due to
heavy rain, snow or
snow build-up on
your dish.
