About Satellite Television
Satellite television uses satellites in a stationary orbit over the Earth to deliver
television and audio programming. This type of orbit enables the satellites to
stay aligned over one place on the surface of the Earth.
On rare occasions, heavy rain, snow, or cloud cover can block the satellite
signal, which can interrupt the programming service. The service will return
after the weather condition has passed.
Twice a year, in Spring and Autumn, the sun moves to a position behind the
satellites as they orbit the Earth. Solar interference lasts for a few minutes a day
for a few days.This is an unavoidable natural event for all television involving
the use of satellites. During these brief periods, you will not be able to see
programs, but once the sun has moved from behind the satellite, the programs
will reappear.
About MDU
Your apartment, condominium or other clustered housing is defined as a
Multiple Dwelling Unit (MDU).
Your television signal is transmitted to you through master multiplexing
distribution equipment located in a central area in your dwelling complex. This
distribution equipment is owned and maintained by the dwelling complex
owners or managers.
The distribution equipment receives the satellite signals using a single master
antenna and distributes the signal to each dwelling unit through a pre-wired wall
outlet. When you purchase your receiver, have it connected and activated, you
will receive your subscribed programming.
