By Tanisha Berg


DirecTV subscribers are provided various television and audio services through satellite-based transmissions. Local television stations, broadcast network channels, paid subscription television, satellite radio, and private video services are all available through Direct TV Utah. Because of the fact that so many choices of channels of offered to its subscribers, DirecTV is able to compete with popular cable services and all other satellite services.

Though first generation antennas were a few meters long, subscribers nowadays are able to use much smaller reception antennas to access their channels. Antenna technology has advances to create much smaller sized antennas across all industries and applications, including fractal antennas. For DirecTV, signal receiving equipment include the satellite dish and integrated receiver and decoder. An access card is also required, which is needed to operate the receiver and decoder.

There are a number of different DirecTV programming packages that consumers who subscribe to the service can choose from and pay for monthly. Some extras in the packages might be a DVR, more receivers, HD channels, premium channels, pay-per-view, and video-on-demand services. They might also purchase a protection plan that provides any necessary repairs or replacement parts of the leased equipment. This covers damages caused by lightening, power surges, floods, etc.

DirecTV holds contracts with various cable networks, film distributors, sports leagues, events promoters, etc. For the distribution rights of all the various programming offered by these companies. These programs are paid for by DirecTV and are delivered to its broadcast centers in Castle Rock, Colorado and Los Angeles. Then they are digitized, compressed, and encrypted to prevent any unauthorized use. The signals of this programming are transmitted to satellites in geostationary orbit, then sent right into subscribers' homes.

A business version of DirecTV is available for areas like bars, restaurants, hotels, hospitals, dorms, etc. Furthermore, subscribers can now have access to all the programming they have at home in their cars, RVs, and boats through DirecTV Mobile. Even aircrafts can access these channels through DirecTV Airborne, which is a joint venture with Connexion by Boeing.

You can choose to install the satellite service yourself if you'd prefer, even though DirecTV will usually offer a free installation. If you choose to do it yourself, you'll be given a dish antenna installation kit and a satellite receiver box. Keep in mind, however, that the installation instructions can vary based on what type of dish you have. Also, you might need to check up on your home owner's association manual or contact the offices for permission to install the dish on your roof.

Once the satellite is installed, connect the receiver box to your TV using a cable. The type of cable depends on the receiver box you're given, however. You might end up choosing between HDMI, component, S-video, composite, or coaxial. Call DirecTV afterwards so that you can activate the service.

Your TV has to be tuned to the specific channel that DirecTV's signals can access. If you don't get the signal right away, use your remote to access the main menu. You'll be provided the exact coordinates to set the satellite dish at for the best reception possible. The choices are azimuth, side direction, elevation, and vertical angle.
